Hi,
due to a very warm April a lot of flowers have bloomed early.
In the UK there is a very old saying - Ne'er cast a clout till May is out. This means don't discard your winter clothing until May is here, trouble is; does it mean the month of May or the May flower which is the old name for Hawthorn? The hawthorn blossomed early so I'm off to get a lighter sweater:D
Kev.
