The collapse of the Gunnera

The giant Gunnera has collapsed for the year
If the weather continues to get colder it will soon begin its sleep until next April
This photograph gives you some idea of how high it was, as it was some 4 feet higher than the Teahouse behind it

 

Ahh, roll on 2008 :D

I folded my leaves over on saturday for another year. Because they get so massive it always looks so bear after, yours even more so !

 

I've done the same to mine too!

 

The folding over has still to be done here
