I haven't got a cold frame so although your cold frame looks like an old fashion cold storage at the moment, your plants might be marginally better off than without it :-)HELENEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16112289914239038835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4811617474824731934.post-669309016633456312013-01-24T09:07:14.339-08:002013-01-24T09:07:14.339-08:00Isn't great great that a gift you thought was ...Isn't great great that a gift you thought was going to be stuck in the back of a drawer or the bottom of the wardrobe comes in useful. <br />I wouldn't go using last year as a benchmark for anything in the garden if I were you.

I don't want too look inside because if they are dead I will be disappointed and I don't want 2013 to start off the way 2012 went!
