Frost On the Way?

It really did feel like late October on Monday with damp, drizzly and cloudy conditions all day without the briefest hint of any sunshine. It does look like things are going to change by the weekend with much colder clearer weather spreading from the north.
 
This is one scenario for early Friday night as the cold weather sinks south from Scotland. Of course the timing is bound to change before the weekend. It might be a case of our first keen frost of winter so any plants needing protection will have to moved into the greenhouse. Our tubs of osteospermums will need to be given some protection as we are experimenting to see if we can over winter the plants in the greenhouse. This way we hope to get them into flower earlier next year. Our potted hydrangea will also be moved into the protection of the cold greenhouse.
