>> I can sympathize with that feeling. It's been unseasonably hot here the last couple days as well. <<
My partner just pointed out that it could be worse. It's 115°F in parts of India. And I was right about remembering their record being 123°F.

Yeah. Used to be, the dormant planting season was about mid-March to mid-April. Now things leaf out way earlier, but plants are shipped later. I've had things arrive in June that should've come in March. But nurseries have largely quit offering the option to specify your own planting date. Sadly, most of what I order isn't available locally, so it's either deal with the unpredictable delivery or do without altogether.
