National collection grant for a backup ventilation heating system from Plant Heritage for this winter. The old fan and heater is 8 years old, and was concerned about it failing. All good now.

Annual winter plant uplift trip to the Eden Project. Always some awesome plants from all over the world. A couple I have my eye on to try.

My setup in the polytunnel. Nothing fancy, but I've had this overwintering setup for about 8 years & has not failed. Bio Green Phoenix, potting bench, led rope light, heated hydropod, trays for sundries. Shelves for growing on, overwintering 100+ brugmansia + subtropicals at 10c

A beautiful species of Brugmansia, Brugmansia arborea. With its hairy calyx petruding down the full length of the corolla. A smaller trumpet than other Brugmansia with fairly long petal tips and sweet almond fragrance, the leaves are hairy, as are the flower buds, stunning!
