Sorry, but I regard the cherries as the only unusual ones. My C. coum
are flowering vigorously, but that's fairly normal for autumn, and
broccoli flip between being annual and biennial at whim - in some
years, all of my spring ones crop in autumn.

We have never had the two cyclamen flower at the same time, normally one now
and the other in early spring. Quite agree broccoli can do it's own thing
some years more than others, this year the rest of the "cabbages" have not
performed as they should on the packets as well most being months early or
just going straight to flower. Still the bees love them.
As for the cherries, we could not believe it when they flowered, only a few
it's true, again in late August and they set.
