Re: [Sansevierias] OFF TOPIC: Can Spring be far behind?

Well after some of the strangest winter weather for the UK, we have had
very bad storms all over the UK with winds up to 90 mph has caused a lot of
damage to property and land erosion. Many parts of the South are still
under water since early December with a lot of small village's only
accessible via boat. And all this is not going away yet with more rain
forecast and the first snow forecast tomorrow with strong winds and
blizzards forecast with very low temps thrown in for good measure.
