Still Wnter But Flowers Abundant

It is officially still winter here, but with temperatures in the high 20s Celsius, my garden is bursting forth already. I have put Grevilleas and Bottle Brush (Callistemon) here before, so this time it's a native Aussie Dendrobium Orchid.

here in belgium 26 more days of summer and then we start autumn.
we had a strange summer too much rain and only the last three weeks we had summer temperatures now and then.
hopefully we can enjoy it a bit before autumn starts, maybe a summer autumn everything goes exactly the other way around.

Those are beautiful OMG.

I had the strangest thing happen with my cherry tree (Black Cherry).
Normally every year it has abundant cherries. Every year for the past 8 it has dropped so many cherries my driveway was covered which made the chickens very happy.
This year nothing. I saw berries develop but then they were gone. It blossomed quite well as usual so i know that's not the problem.
My apple tree blossomed and did quite well then all the apples fell off and now the leaves are falling off.
Could it be bugs?
