All this topsy turvy global warming malarkey seems to have got Mother Nature a little confused.
The Ceanothus is in flower again. It's meant to flower in spring, and it did, and then again in summer and then again now!
The Magnolia tree, one of the first signs of spring but it's flowering for the second time.
Not only this but the bulbs are coming up, what's going on?
Of course there are some signs of autumn, the leaves are falling, the squirrels are gathering nuts....
...but also I've seen some birds beginning nests.Personally I'm not looking forward to the cold, dark damp days of winter. Mother Nature is confused....I have a cunning plan!.....
If we can convince Mother Nature that winters been and gone, we can get our lost summer back. I've already started by placing this old diary, along with subtle hint in a prominent place in the garden. This will plant the seed of doubt in Mother Natures mind.
As I mentioned, some of the bulbs are already showing themselves. All they need is some help and encouragement. A short length of elastic tied around them and up over a branch should do the trick.
I've collected some of the not so bad leaves, all we need to do now is.....
....peg them back on. Come on all you summer lovers from the northern hemisphere, don't fail me now, we can still turn this thing around........
