Beginning of Autumn in N.E. Downunder - potted Azaleas are blooming early this year (Rhododendron simsii)

Both pots of Azaleas out in the Courtyard Garden have starting flowering which is a little unusual for early Autumn.

They are beauties Bernieh, I always say the plants and animals know more than us about weather, I watch both.

Thanks Sixpence. Yes it's strange how these have started flowering so early, almost like they're making up for the lack of blooms elsewhere in the garden.

I think your garden is full of blooms may be not to you but to us it is and looks great considering the damage you ve had your a great gardener and dedicated and it all comes down to the great gardener.

Thanks Sixpence and Clarice, parts of the garden are certainly coming along nicely after the cyclone but there are spots that are just downright ugly and have a way to go in the recovery stage.
