    There's a lot of different plants that seem to have, in the last couple of years, Shane, decided to flower again out of their normal flowering season. The Season, in my opinion, are not as clear cut as they were and so are overlapping, due to Climate Warming, and confusing plants. We, in West Cheshire, haven't had any real snowfalls since '93 and frost seems to become a rarer thing. I had Gladioli flowering in October, Shrubs repeat flowering out of Season along with a lot of my Clematis, some of which have flowered continually from February up, and including now, when they should be just Spring flowering.:dunno::coffee::snorky:

    two days ago, first frost. all the leaves on many plants and trees. all wilted from it. Guess what? The hardy geraniums all happy and up right, just a pure freshness in my garden, not fazed a bit.
