I think you might be right. I have no idea about Bay trees or living in a cold place, so I did some googling and -
"Bay trees are hardy down to 20 °F (-6 °C), but once temperatures drop below this, they can start to struggle. Their ideal range is 40-60 °F ( 4-15°C) or higher. Since they are evergreen perennials, if you live in a colder region you’re going to want to bring them indoors during the winter if you can.
Cold damage on bay trees often takes the form of cracked or peeling bark. Typically, this will get better on its own as temperatures warm up. If it doesn’t improve, and the parts of the tree above it are dying, you may want to cut back the dying parts to give the tree time to heal.
To prevent the bay tree from getting damaged by cold, don’t take it outside until temperatures are consistently above 20 °F (-6 °C). And make sure you bring it back inside when temperatures start to drop again."
She had 2 beautiful Bays that would have cost a bit surely she would think to drag them into the fecking greedhouse. Why does she have a greedhouse if not for this reason.
