@serum59043 do you put straw inside, too?

@foretaste2 no I stuffed it with fleece, it has a cowl on the top so stops the rain but keeps a bit of airflow. hubby was a roofer so have a few about‍♀️

@serum59043 I might try that with mine this winter!

@foretaste2 it’s been a mild one this year but I think the wet may have seen it off if I hadn’t had this over it

@serum59043 how old is your basjoo? I only bought mine this year so it’s quite small.

I bought mine last year and it’s been out ever since. I had a big clump years ago but slowly lost the lot only the last few years getting back into the gardening
