Default No-one has told the garden that winter is here in a few days

Here in NE Suffolk,

The grass is growing full-speed-ahead and it badly needs cutting.
Though we have had a couple of ground frosts and a dusting of snow, the dahlias are intact and preparing new flowers.
One of the begonias thinks it is spring and has began growing like crazy.
Assorted other plants have flowered a second time when they should have waited until 2016.

It's unheard of since autumn 2014, which was also hyper mild.

We have pink Rhododendrons flowers out.
And a few red flowers on our Rhododendron called 'May Day'. Named such because that is the time it is meant to flower.
Still, red is an appropriate colour for Christmas.
