Snow not as good as Sno's Snow but....

Australian conditions vary from one extreme to another. What do you do and when do you do it?

Had a bit of a dusting of snow last night so I took the opportunity to take a couple of photos.

Thanks Sno. All the snow has melted here, its up to 4 degrees now but we might get a bit more tonight.
The Acacia is in a wind free spot so it is safe, not like a couple of other bonsai that bit the dust. Opportunities for redesign so I'm lead to believe.

They look so good, Watto! Once again, I'm shivering just looking at all that white stuff, hope everything copes with that cold snap!

There looks to be some interesting shape in that howittii Watto - I would like a closer look when it's flowering. We got sleet, but nothing on the ground.
