the storm on Tuesday was quite something…

I was worried the hail was going to come right through the windows even though it was only marble-sized in our neighbourhood…

yesterday when I wandered around the garden, I could see how much the hail had damaged the plants…

the hostas took a real beating and the poppies were knocked over by a branch which fell down from the elm tree next door…

but their colour still popped;-)…

damaged…

for the last week or so I’ve been wondering why the hibiscus is getting all these yellow leaves… I’d been watering it and had even given it some banana peel water…

this afternoon, between rainfalls, I put a chair up alongside it as the wind is supposed to get crazy tomorrow and I didn’t want it to blow over again…

and spotted this…

this is very sad… I hope I will be able to remove the broken portion and that the other two stems will remain healthy…

it may have been damaged during the big storm last week… the tree had blown over and I didn’t check the stem when I put it back up… too bad, maybe it could have been repaired…
