Global warming

The weather here is crazy. It’s mid-November, and still mostly around 15°C. There was a short cold spell a few weeks ago, and the renewed mild temperatures are playing havoc with plants. To show how crazy it is, I first wanted to show the new growth on our roses. Next to them, the lavender is blossoming again. But then I saw our neighbours’ tree.

At least some trees are keeping to the normal rhythm, even if somewhat later than normal:
