Default Just wondered if anyone else's plants are flowering when they shouldn't be?

I'm sure I have plants that are flowering at the moment that don't
normally at this time of year. I have one primrose and a couple of
bluebell plants that are flowering. My roses are still flowering

and a
couple of them seem to be having a second or maybe third flowering
session and I'm sure this doesn't normally happen. Please tell me

I'm
not alone and also that this won't affect flowering for next year.


You must have had a good season. It certainly won't disturb your
roses. I live in Australia and in some parts here roses will pretty
much flower all year round - as plants, they just don't last as long
as they should as they get exhausted, which they don't where there is
a distinct cold winter and they can do the normal rose cycle.
