After all the wind & rain we had on wednesday, quite a lot of my plants where flattened or blown down

this was yester day morning took soom of them out, and replaced with some new plants

then i got up again this morning as we had heavy rain and strong wind again last night and this what it did again

although its not rained since about 9-30am it is very windy.

Anywhere where there's some sunshine!!

I've just seen the local forecast and I think I'm going to howl - rain, cloud, rain, more rain. The wind is still howling outside and I'm off to bed! Goodnight all.

I must say we haven't had damaging winds here which is rather unusual since everywhere else seems to have had them, - but it has been a little bit blustery all the same. Sorry to hear of your plants Carol

Sorry to hear of all the damage done to your's, and everyone elses garden, Clarice. We've had much the same weather as everyone else, but I seem to be the lucky one as I don't seem to have had any damage done to the garden. The only present the strong winds bought me was plenty of 'helicopters' from next door's tree...........plenty of hoeing to be done soon to get rid of all the seedlings! lol

Well dont believe it got up this morning to find the plants in the last photo where it had been damaged thursday night to find last nights wind had broken lots of stems of it so this morning took the hole lot of it out, and put some bulbs in its place for spring, so dont think the wind can do much to them, it is still very blustery today again, sun keeps coming out but it does keep trying to rain aswell.
