The news reports from the Australian fires are terrifying. So much loss of life, habitat and wholesale destruction of wildlife. Appalling - and no end in sight.
David Nicholson:
My potted Rhododendron praecox has been beautiful for the past couple of years but this year a great disappointment as you will see from the first picture. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of it from 2019 (all my 2019 pictures were lost in moving to Windows 10 and a new laptop) and the 2018 picture shows it not at it's best. (second picture)

Rhododendrons coming early this year. My Ciliatum flowered from the end of January and is still in flower thanks to no frosts! Snow lady opened up on the 28 February and hopefully will survive some slight frost. So far Edgeworthii has produced large buds and at this rate will open in about 3 weeks...if weather holds.

A lovely lady, without snow! Wasn't expecting to hear from you today, Tom- I thought you'd be too busy eating birthday cake!! Many happy returns of the day!!
