MEANWHILE IN THE GREENHOUSE

I don’t know why but everything is growing like mad this year, in the garden and in the greenhouse. The only disadvantage are the snails, never had so many!!!

Here are some pictures of the greenhouse.

IF THEY TASTE AS GOOD AS THEY LOOK…

SNACK TOMATOES

GRAPES, they will be dark blue when  ripe, they look a bit odd but that is cos you don’t have to cut the excess grapes yourself, this grape loses the excess grapes it self (does anyone know what the english word is for this ?)

LONG BELL PEPPERS 

There are other things growing in my greenhouse as well but that will be for another time.

Have a great day and thanks for visiting !

MY NEWEST ADDITION

WHITE OLEANDER

I finally found a white oleander, it is a small one but I hope it’ll grow. All I could find in the plant centers were red or pink oleanders but I love white flowers just a little more than other colours. Oleander is a potplant in my country.

Have a great day !

LADY IN WHITE

At the moment my climbing rose GUIRLANDE D’AMOUR looks like a lady in a weddingdress who wears a lovely perfume. My whole garden smells of her !

Have a great weekend all and enjoy your garden if you can, it will make you completely zen. Thanks for visiting !

 

 

Please sign this petition!

PLEASE PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION FOR THE DOGS THAT WILL BE EATEN BY PEOPLE !!!!!!

Paul Handover's avatarLearning from Dogs

S. Korea is the only country in the world with large-scale, commercial dog meat farms.

Frankly, I wasn’t planning to publish a post today. But then in came an email from John Zande, he of the blog The Superstitious Naked Ape, and this is what I read: “Paul, hi… Really good news. The following email links to a petition supporting a bill that will end the dog meat trade in Korea. I know you’ll want to sign it. Share it around, too.”

John then linked to a petition over on the Lady Freethinkers blog.

Jean and I have signed the petition and now I am republishing in full what you can read if you go across to that petition page.

ooOOoo

SIGN: PASS NEW BILL TO BAN HORRIFIC DOG MEAT FARMS IN S. KOREA
