13th St.Hilaries Day
The coldest day of the year
Not true in 2003- 2010

22nd St.Vincents Day
Remember on St. Vincent`s day,
If the sun his beams display
For `tis a token,bright and clear,
Of prosperous weather all the year.
2010 -Dull and wet

25 th St Pauls Day
If St Pauls day be fair and clear,
Then it betides a happy year.A dull day was an omen of war and disaster
2010 Overcast and gloomy

General
If in January, the sun much appear
March and April pay full dear
Not true in 2003,04,05
No sun in 2010 !

In 2010 it was so cold and snowy
that most of these plants struggled to perform or even be visible.Those which did flower were damaged by the frosts.
