Here in the north we have to beware of a false spring.

Often in August the weather warms up, the daffs (not the paperwhites, they flowered back in May and June) flower and the blossom appears on the early ripening plum trees then BAM we get another southerly blast with heavy rain.

Last year that was when we got snow in some parts and a little sleet in the Auckland CBD.

The result is that any newly planted seedlings get stunted or turn up their toes and rot as does any seed sown outdoors.
