Frozen beans


A flying visit realised my worst fears. The beans which were so lofty only a week ago haven't coped with the sub zero temperatures. They were pretty much all frost damaged and lying limp on the ground. I don't know if they will recover or not? A pity because they were doing so well.


The garlic isn't wasn't badhit but as you see their leaves are floppy too. I suppose the cold weather will at least kill off some of the bugs and pests.


The artichokes have taken a tumble too. They tend to fall with the first frosts so I'm surprised they've last this long really. Still no signs of my rhubarb pushing through yet but that's probably just as well given the weather.
