About the only cyclone damage I had was a Joey palm washed away I planted a couple of weeks ago in a gully. All was not lost just picked the little fella up and repotted him. I got away with Alfred pretty good in comparison to some places. 

I am glad your damage was minimal. Weather events can really mess things up and hurt the plants. Here we have had very little rain but major winds that blow debris everywhere and tear up the palms . Some palms are more vulnerable , like newly planted ones or fragile leaf forms. Harry

I’ve had worse storms over the years than Alfred. Definitely a lot of rain though. The wind can wreak havoc to plants I was pretty lucky, I had a big branch land on my potting up shed, I won’t worry about fixing it just a dented piece of tin. But iam certainly glad I don’t have a big mess in my greenhouse to clean up. A few big old palm leaves did the most  damage in the way of breaking small palm leaves but that’s minimal damage that occurs anytime. It’s great to see the bush so wet no threat of fires water tanks full garden soaked time of work let it rain I say. We spend more days in the dry bush than wet weather events you can see it, all the neighbours stay home enjoying the wet weather time in the bush being accentrics in our own way.
