Is it just me or does anyone else feel that things seem to be galloping
into flower, going over and almost getting ready for autumn? With a
few things it feels almost like a 'blink and you'll miss it' flowering

someone said they thought this might happen.

My japanese anemones have been in flower for a few weeks. I don't ever
remember them flowering in July before. Once they flower I usually
think that summer is on the way out!
