Hope no permanent damage, when the winds stop.

I have given this a 'like' Bjs. The expression on the rabbits face is definitely saying "It wasnae me". I see you have the pot sitting on pieces of wood to raise it to allow drainage. This is one reason I now use feet that curl round the edge of the pot to stop them being tumbled in the wind. I hope none of your alpine pots went over and that there is little or no damage to your lovely acer.

I am glad he is okay. He is so cute. When I was transporting my daffs to a show I had to jam the pot in a cardboard box with a hole cut in the base (used the box upside down). I wonder if you could make a base using a polystyrene box filled with cement to stop this happening again. It looks happy in the pot and a clay pot would make it difficult to move if that was ever necessary. It is a beautiful acer with those pale leaves and red stems.

Thats a shame I hope it has nt broken it or damaged it it looks a lovely one as well. Thats what I do when my plants fall leave them not to get damaged. Perhaps a heavier planter a crock one like I have my Acers in would be better for it Brian they never blow over.
