    I would wait another few weeks until the next cold snap has come and gone.

    Your Gazania overwinter outside B3? Hmm. Mine are in the bathroom!

    Yes  about  five years old now. Only the cream and the yellow ones now. The red lasted a few years. The stripey ones didn't overwinter but I wasn't so keen on them anyway.

    I divided my Achilleas last Sunday and they're doing well. That being said, it has been a warm week here in the East Midlands.
