This year spring seems to sleep further and further later in the season while prolonged spells of freezing weather persist. No doubt the plant, especially the fruit ones, that depends on early flowering will have a tough time to cope.
This Monday afternoon for instance on the backdrop of the large Hawthorn bush at the centre of Surrey Square Park react to the lengthening of the days by his abundant flowering the weather looked set to snub at the light pace of spring.
A little surreal.
