    Roses still pop an occasional flower, hydrangeas have the last blooms on, they had some new ones until last week but some really cold nights wiped them off. And I have a frek hollyhock blooming now, don't ask me why. It felt like it I guess. :)

    My Callistemon Viminalis has two flowers, it had none in summer when it should have had. the Clianthus 'Flamingo' is flowering again which is also out of season.:scratch:
