A lot of the trees were left in a state of shock by the drought we had this summer and lost their leaves as a result
Now there is more water about and the air temperature is still relatively warm the poor things thinks it’s the start of spring
Hence lots of plants have had a 2nd flowering
Our front garden looks great at the moment because the plants have come back to life, they were pretty much dead in July/ aug
The back garden is still recovering though.
