WHAT IS FLOWERING IN MY GARDEN

We had quite a bit of rain lately so my garden looks a bit tatty but everything is growing fast. I cannot believe we are going towards the end of June already.

I had a bit of a stroll in the garden today and I took some pictures for you to see.

HONEYSUCKLE, LONICERA HENRYI
ROSA SEAGULL, A RAMBLER WITH A VERY LONG FLOWERING PERIOD AND A SWEET SMELL, ATTRACTS A LOT OF BEES.

The buzz of the bees in my garden is overwhelming at the moment. And I love it.

Have a great weekend all !!

THE BEAUTY OF MISS BATEMAN

CLEMATIS MISS BATEMAN

Miss Bateman is on of the first clematis to bloom in Spring.This one has opened yesterday and then it still shows a soft green colour in the middle of the petals, when the flower gets more mature it will be  snow white and the purple stamen will get darker.

I love clematis flowers but this one is one of my favorites (I have a weak spot for white flowers), it blooms in April-May-June, depending on the weather and then it comes back in August-September. This one is growing in my garden and it gets support from an ivy.

We also have a bit of rain today, I’m very pleased with it cos it was already bone dry allthough we had a very wet Winter.

I hope you are all ok what with this corona business ! Take care !

Have a great weekend !

THE ARDECHE IN FRANCE (2)

Today is about the houses and flowers. Most people there have flowers on their balcony’s or near the front door, as we were there in September many of them looked a bit tatty cos of the drought and the ban to use water. But nevertheless the houses still looked stunning.

Hanging geraniums are quite drought resistant.

THE ROSES WERE GONE OFCOURSE BUT THEY LEFT A LOT OF BOTTLES FOR THE BIRDS

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND !!
