The storm only lasted a few minutes and had gusts of winds over 90 km/h. It ripped my wall greenhouse out of the wall (anchors and all) and the sides of the greenhouse sprung (polycarbonate, they didn't break). The garden table and chairs got picked up and dropped about 10 feet away as we watched from the window. Then we got hail so bad we couldn't see anything anymore out of the window.
The first thing I did was take the few minutes walk to the community garden to assess the damage.
Here is the 1297 Ghaye. This morning I pulled the plant. The main and almost all the secondaries were ripped apart (growing tips all gone) and there were hardly any leaves left that hadn't snapped.
