We were away from home for most of the summer during the worst of last year’s drought , and as a result, many of our flowers and shrubs almost died from lack of moisture.
Once we did get home and began watering, our saucer magnolias produced out-of-season blooms in late August.
Since then, the year-long drought followed by a mild and moist winter has led to some interesting phenomena:
This Azalea has been blooming since mid-January.
And as of today, it seems to have convinced its neighbor that spring is here.
One of our Camellias is blooming, too, but that’s almost normal; they usually start about the end of February.
