In my location (SE) we have had virtually nothing that could be called
winter conditions, it has been like a perpetual autumn. One thing I have
noticed as a result is that that the broad beans I sowed at the end of
October have just kept on growing through the winter, and are not
outgrowing their pots. I'm sure there must be other plants that have not
gone into a proper dormant period. If this mildness continues up to
spring are there likely to be any adverse effects on any plants/trees
that are more adapted to proper seasons?
