I believe the effect of El Nino on this season must be more marked in 
the northern portions of the country.  While I do have those silly 
asters and mums in bloom right now (triggered by the warm temps and 
short day length?), most everything else in my area is just about on 
schedule.  In fact, I have a gardenia that sometimes has blooms on 
Mother's day and it looks like it will be several more weeks before it 
blooms.  Weird...
