Andy, that is such a beautiful specimen.
Nice watchtower 😆 😆
Doesn't it ever rain SIDEWAYS in England? 😉

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Jim.... this will be a first proper intro to Winter they are expecting Snow showers in some parts of the UK... mainly on high ground and hills. Hopefully I won't see any snow in my area.
Barb... I had to roof the Rostrata because a few leaves were starting to rot.... we have been inundated with rain again and the plant was soaked through, not good before cold weather arrives. Fortunately this week it has been sunnier and windy which has helped dry it out. Yep we get horizontal rain but I am loathe to put extra panels on as this will act as a sail for the wind. The "Tower" stands at 2.6metres tall and in its current form copes with strong winds well 😀

Wow, yes, Andy...you recent storms even made the news here.
A few more yuccas and you'll find you've roofed your entire yard. 😀

My Rostrata has never liked any water sitting on it,ruins those pretty leaves.
We were having an Arctic front last week and 10F @ the airport,
now its 60F @ 11pm and thunderstorms with frequent lightning.
Back to 14F/34F Tuesday?
Not anymore-now they say 37F/57F or we have no clue really!-LOL

Barb, looks like your small town joined the Winter Club this morning. Hope you've got some snow as we were getting today. Looking for a harsh cold tomorrow too.

I was just thinking of you Igor.
What a winter's blast.
There'll be yucca damage here for sure...no snow on the ground. No snow in forecast.
And even though weather sticker says -11C 12F, my place is more exposed.
My temp -12.2C 10F :lickice:
Stay warm & safe, Igor!

Terrible! A such harsh cold without snow cover, Barb! I feel much better having a first snow looking like

You're absolutely correct, Igor.
Too much cold too soon...October's warmth and sun is only a distant memory.
Gorgeous photo, Igor 😀
Very pretty.
And you're "warmer" than us 😕

So are we Paul.
I should've been dreading COLD, not the snow.
Not a flake landed.
Barometer's almost on TILT: "very dry" 😐

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Hi Aaron.....your yard looks like it has a LOT OF WIND! Any plant which survives your yard is hardy in my opinion. 8)

Aaron, wow, haven't seen a shot from that angle before.
You've done so much to define the outdoor spaces...very very nice.
Obviously a labour of love.
Yup, can imagine the wind howling there.
But the open skies are worth it.

I'm surprised we haven't had any snow, yet. Not that I miss it! 😆
