My Trachelospermum is fairly well established, but is not in leaf yet. This does not seem right at this time of the year. I think the breaking buds may have been blasted with the freezing fen wind. The stems appear to be green after a scratch test. What are yours doing?

Mine keeps its leaves all year round?

I thought mine did too, but the poor thing must have lost its leaves and then had the new ones frozen off. Thanks Steve. I will just cut it down to a couple of feet and pot it and plant a rose which I already have. If the Trachelospermum recovers, I will plant it in a more sheltered position.

I hope it revives Cherry, they are expensive to buy. My newly planted one isn't doing very much at the moment, I think its too cold  |

I bravely/foolishly bought a couple last year....one was planted by the shed at the allotment....I think its dead  The other was lifted out its pot and over wintered in the greenhouse.....It is in a sheltered spot in the garden atm.......we shall see  |

I inherited mine - and it's in the wrong place, so it gets hardly any sun. The result of course is - no flowers! It does keep its leaves, though.
