The frosts have hit


The frosts have most definitely hit now in the UK. My area is lucky to escape the snow for now, but I believe it will be on its way sooner or later. My bonsai are now frozen solid in their pots, despite mostly being in the greenhouse. Although the greenhouse does not offer much rest bite from the frost, it does give me a better chance of monitoring the trees watering needs over the winter, I can easily see when they are drying out, and also do not have to worry about excess water from rain over the coming months. These severe frosts have come very early this year, so it may be that we are in for a long winter, all I can say is, hurry up spring!
