Maybe check to see that a cat or squirrel hasn't made a hole in the side?

We are " lucky 1S", no squirrels around here. It's kind of species that is not common here (has been introduced but failed). Minus 0,7C BTW. I think T down to minus 10 for Trachys is not mortal, is it?

nope, unless you planted them 2 days ago.
