Took some photos at first light trying to get the sparkle effect of the frost but I don't think it quite came off! My baby bottlebrush in the second photo doesn't seem to mind the cold but the kangaroo apple wilts horribly so you think it must be a gonner,then miraculously comes back to life.At least it always has so far! Funny,they are both Australian plants.I seem to have quite a few.I think the correa is as well. 0 false 4 37712 false false false Entry 3406 User 2008-12-11T11:00:00+11:00 DMY 38699 Public 2008-12-12T03:15:23+11:00 3406 Cloudy 1 C
