Watch out for your tender plants, quite a sharp frost forecast for the next few nights.

Really?
I've just looked at the forecast and it says 17*C, rising to mid 20's through the day. And I've just watered the cactus in the garden...

Hmm, you are in Spain though. It makes a difference. I think.

Don't have plants to worry about but I had to scrape the windscreen this morning before setting off for work.

Golden rule where I live is don't put out your bedding plants until the end of May.
Summers here though, I saw my first swallow today:thup:

Agree with Doon, never put bedding plants out until April is out!

Desperately in need of rain in the SW corner of Scotland.
I am watering every day. Temperatures in the upper teens and a gentle wind blowing for about two weeks now.

Tis mad down here as well, no decent rain for ages.Laid about 70 sqm of lawn and 200 foot of Yew hedging in March/April and having to keep watering the lot, driving me nuts and stopping me playing more golf, grr, what happened to April showers!!Have dug three 2.5foot deep holes recently and the soil is fairly dry all the way down, to bury the wife in, amazing for this time of year.

We had 8mm in Taunton in April. Then 22mm fell on the last day. Been bone dry since too. Really struggling to get anything to grow on the allotment, despite going down daily to water. Hate to imagine what the summer will be like.
It drizzled when I was coming back from the pub last night...
we had enough rain to dampen the plants on Sunday morning, but nothing for a while.
We did have frost last night, typical. been patching the the dead bits on the lawn that the dogs pee'd on over winter. it had all just germinated and sprouted though yesterday, so i imagine the frost has killed it all;(
