thanks for the comments. jacue my lot are always scatty,lol

Sorry to hear of the losses Sandra,but looks like some pretty robust survivors The ladybirds appreciated your succulents !......

All in all, From your photos things seem to be doing okay. Hope your losses weren't too bad! So far the only thing I know I've lost is a parsley plant. : ) Big deal!

thanks BB and Wohibuli i lost loads but i knew i was pushing nature and she'll only be pushed so far.... but it was great to start going forward today. the ladybirds made my day. spring is definately here. ;-))

: )

If you are a gardener, you always push nature, don't you. This year, she pushed back - and we have all lost plants, sadly.

I still have to face up to my losses, Sandra, and decide what to do about replacing or substituting.

It does look as though at least you have some that are doing well. :-) I've seen ONE ladybird - I agree, it was great to see him!

I push the limits of hardiness with what I grow so I'm definitely expecting casualties after this past winter. But so far, it's not been as bad as I feared

That's good to hear, Andrew!

My next problem is my Erigerons. In the side garden, they look very dead with no small plants coming on underneath. I shall just have to grit my teeth and dig them out.:-(

Yes I enjoyed the photos Sandra. You have some nice cacti. Sorry to hear you lost some in the winter I. I haven't looked at my succulents yet.

i find plants just a few feet apart from each other do so differently. a little less wind or a bit more sun can afect the way a plant grows. some of my aeoniums outside did better than those wrapped up inside....

That's strange. But I think succulents like a free flow of air. I have some succulents in the garage covered in bubble wrap. Maybe I'll look tomorrow.

Well, the ones that survived sure look lovely and healthy Sandra. Sorry about the ones that didn't make it.
Your pics are lovely and so are your doggies. Thanks for the blog. :o)

Hope you didn't have to throw too many away Sandra, I love, I love your succulents and cacti. The dogs are cute too : )

it wasn't to many thanks all. it is lovely hare today little bit of sunshine but no wind rain or sea mist. ;-))
