Gardening season finished?
 

I noticed that the local supermarkets are clearing all the garden stuff and
even the Garden Centres are starting to focus on Christmas.
I know that Sacha said we were having an early Autumn and is off abroad but
Summer ain't done yet is it?

No the apparent early autumn is because trees are discarding leaves in a
response to save themselves from the lack of water

I've had a couple of Christmas catalogues and an email announcing that a
range of Christmas cards is now available. I replied telling them that
while I appreciate competition is stiff, I will not be buying Christmas
cards from people who start pushing me in July!
And a few trees round here are starting to change colour - not going brown
from drought.

And branches. My own 100ft high poplars have been losing quite large
dry branches at quite an alarming rate -- even more so if I happen to
be in the vicinity.
