My wife was looking over my shoulder.  She doesn't think they look very happy.  I just explained the process of packing an 800 lb bull out of a remote area.. :chuckle:

Plants in our zone do not change hue by temp.
Check your elevation and amount of daylight which is normally associated with the date on the calendar...heat has virtually nothing to do with plants turning color...unless it is on fire. Just sayin.
Hence the call on the picture...
