I have been in London for the past 2 days and I was surprised to see so
many formal, public gardens with tender plants still flowering and how!
On the way back tonight, I went shopping at Lakeside on the Kent-Essex
border and found, on the roundabout at the entrance to Lakeside, that
Busy Lizzies and Geraniums are in full flower, mine in East Anglia are
already dead - is this global warming or ir is usual for those areas to
have flowering annuals at this time of year?
