Sometimes I have difficulty telling the difference between what looks awful and what is really dead. I've got quite a few that are native that look like hell, but i'm hoping the roots are fine and with some late winter pruning??? I expected the Esperanza to look rough, but the Turk's Cap, Cupheas, Flame Acanthus, Chile Pequin and Shrimp Plants look terrible.

SG and Gregg's Mist are mostly fine - interesting I've got some lavender thats as green as its ever been.

I did cover my Satsuma Orange, Meyer Lemon and Arbequina Olives. The olives look good but the citrus...Satsuma also has rolled leaves. Meyer Lemon looks a little worse.

I am very grumpy during the winter...
