So you can see that 2014 was well and truly the driest year we have had since we moved here with the next driest with 500mm more rain than we had in 2014. No wonder some of the plants have been stressed and not been growing particularly well. 2014 was also marked by some quite severe frosts that badly affected some of our tree plantings including the poinciana we have growing as a specimen tree on the lawn. We had to remove quite a few branches that had been killed by the frost. Luckily the blue quandongs which looked as though they had been killed are now covered in regrowth.

So yes, your driest year by some way. I believe that January 2015 has been wet, so I hope not too many plants and trees will go the way of Roger! By the way, saw Belted Galloways near Bowral on Sunday. Always think of you, Steve, Dexter and Baxter when I spot them!
