In St. Petersburg, after honeysuckle, weigel and kalina blossomed due to abnormal heat

In the Moscow Victory Park, after honeysuckle before the onset of cold weather, weigels and kalina suddenly blossomed. Park staff, preparing the territory for the winter, noticed this unusual phenomenon and captured it. This was reported in the press service of the Committee for the improvement of St. Petersburg.

Weigela is a decorative shrub whose flowers resemble small bells. Usually it pleases the eye in late spring and early summer, but some varieties are able to bloom again closer to autumn. However, what kind of variety blossomed in the park is not specified.

Ordinary kalina also usually blooms in late spring, and by autumn red berries are already adorned on it. Its inflorescences have a curious structure: large white flowers at the edges are needed to attract insects, and future berries are formed from small flowers in the center.

An abnormally warm autumn often knocks down the biological rhythms of plants. Earlier it was reported that in St. Petersburg prematurely blossomed capriophole, or curly honeysuckle. Usually this species pleases the eyes of St. Petersburgers from the end of May to June.
