Is it winter already?
 
My Winter Jasmine (J. nudiflorum) has three flowers on it already. It was
transferred from my brothers garden in May and has done rather well in my
garden growing from about 75 cm to 140 cm. My sister-in-law says it's
normally January when it flowers in their garden.

And yet we have dandelions and Valerian still flowering here and the
Fremontodendron outside my window seems to be putting out new leaves.

Mine has too ( a lot more than 3). It's usually early November when it
starts so it is a bit early.

I also have flowers on Clematis montana and C armandii, and Hamamels
mollis. And the Viburnum bodnantense has been well out for some weeks.
It seems wuite a few things have had their timing put out by this
miserable summer.

But that's late, whereas some of this is either early or 'never stopped'!

Mine also has several flowers - I didn't think to count them.

Well, yes, I usually do, until the first frost gets to work. We had one
light frost which crinkled a few leaves, but didn't touch the marrows.
(Of which I have six plants, and plenty of marrows yet to pick)

Strangely, the marrows in the garden of next-door-but-one have been
terminated with cold precision.

Might well do - I've a Sheddi Sailor coming to East Angular in his
land-yacht near the end of the week, and I may be out on the local shoot
- probably on Thursday, which may leave Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
No buses here on Saturday or Sunday - though Oi have a boike.

I haven't looked at mine. I'll try to unforget to do so.

And we have birds that appear to be thinking about mating and nesting. Two
robins were squabbling hammer and tongs in the greenhouse today and as for
the grass, it isn't even thinking of slowing down.
