Take some comfort that they did not falter from one single attack but that it took a whole slew of nasties to do them in. <br /><br />Thank goodness for the gardener's mantra: "There's always next year..."Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17822528453563683772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3617616424270708150.post-3853617895472824922009-08-04T15:30:01.198+01:002009-08-04T15:30:01.198+01:00Oh, I'm sorry!
