I definitely focused more on perennials... because I mostly looked at my back garden... and the trees and shrubs that have suffered there... we're probably due to a honeyfungus problem... and you didn't want me to mix that in with the weather... most of my trees and shrubs are fine in the front...

Thanks Helen 💞

Maybe with all the heat Crepe Myrtles may find England more favourable for flowering. Can cope with heat and cold but I read need a lot of summer heat to flower well. Nice size and in Australia don’t suffer from the leaf burn in western sun that damages Japanese Maples.
