Musings and meanderings from the Musical Gardener
Flowers in December = too weird. No wonder my bees are confused!
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed a brass quintet concert yesterday and then dinner out on half price appetizers with friends who had accompanied us. A lovely day here!
ReplyDeleteThe walk for us happened on Saturday. It's a mile roundtrip to the mailbox.
Starting to look wintry here at last. Sharp frost last night has finished off the fuchsias who though that summer was just around the corner, grass has finally stopped growing and most of the trees have had the decency to lose their leaves.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to go out and put lights on a tree but the wind was making the 25 degree weather very uncomfortable. Maybe tonight.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievably warm here, too, on the East Coast of the US. No complaints here!
ReplyDeleteThat is really unusual seeing a wildflower in Dec. Once in a while mother nature fools us around here and a spell of warm weather triggers my magnolia tree to open up a few blossoms. It is quite a sight in the middle of winter.
ReplyDeleteYour last picture and question are very telling. Many places have kept records of first blooms in the spring. In Switzerland blooms have advanced by 90 days. It looks like the same thing is happening in the fall.
ReplyDeleteI had one of those wildflowers just before Thanksgiving..you had a great walk..thanks for sharing the photos:)
