I should be getting a flower on my Strelitzia (Bird of Paradise) by Christmas it has been outside all summer and came into the conservatory about a month ago. We still have a rose flowering in the garden.

The only flower in my garden is my winter Jasmine, but I brought in my fuchsia when we started getting frosts. Trouble is, its now so warm it is flowering. The only cold place is the garage, but its too dark. any suggestions?

Last month there was a thread about summer flowers still blooming in November and now I think that some plants are flowering early. The Mahonia 'Charity' has been in flower for over a month and yesterday I saw a few flowers on a Forsythia shrub. Heather
