Confused? You Will be!

The calendar says January 10th but the plants say middle of March. Climate craziness is sending usually clockwork plant systems into confusion as Germany experiences a blast of early spring. Temperatures which have been in the low single digits for the past month or so suddenly leapt into double figures this week, dragging some sleepy blooms from their winter rest. They, as will the people of Germany, will get a shock next week, however. Temperatures are expected to plummet again, forcing the population to grab their jackets again and the plants to battle on against the unpredictability of the seasons.
