Yesterday was a nice day, dry for a change so we went to the arboretum to take a few pictures. Alas the rain and storms we had lately damaged a lot of flowers but I found some that were still beautiful.

I hope you are all ok. Take care and thanks for your visit !
We have a very odd Summer this year, cool and wet so I haven’t as many flowers as usually. Last year it was so hot I spent hours in front of the fan. This year we got airco and voila, we haven’t used it even once 😀 But hey, I am not complaining, I like this cooler weather.

I just love the blue flowers of this herb. The plant is not really prettty but the flowers are. And it attracts a lot of bee’s.
I hope you are all well and happy. Take care and thanks for visiting.
Lately we have been having very wet, windy and cool weather with lots of thunder so my garden doesn’t look it’s best but it is green and lush and growing, only the flowers look a bit tatty at the moment. So here’s an update on my appletree’s I showed you a while ago.
these are the apple flower buds in april
both my mini apple tree’s had loads of buds
this is the youngest and the smallest of the 2, it had lots of flowers but no apples, there were tiny apples but they all fell off
this is the biggest of the 2 and it has quite a bit of apples at the moment, last year it had none
Here you can see one of them and they are groing nicely as you can see
I hope you all had a wonderfull 4th of July weekend.

It is almost the end of May and it is still cold and very wet. Nature is very happy with all the rain ofcourse but flowers and blooms are way behind . Despite all that I do have some flowers in bloom in my garden.

I walked arround in our street with my camera to take a few shots of the lovely Spring flowers our neighbours have in their front yard.

I never saw this before so I was surprised and took a picture of it. I don’t know what tree this is.
MORE PRUNUS FLOWERS
I can’t believe it is almost mid May. The weather hasn’t been great so far, that is the reason everything started flowering later than usual. It was cold, windy and sunny when I took these pictures.
Today has been soft but we had sun, rain and wind but between the rain it was nice to be outside. I planted some veggies and herbs in the garden. I never have been this late with planting. But as we were told there won’t be nightfrosts anymore I could finally start planting.
Next time I’ll show you what is flowering in my garden.
Have a great week ! Keep safe, we are nearly there !!

I love yellow flowers in the garden, they brighten the whole garden, even on days when the sun don’t shine.
April was cold and the forcast for the next 2 week isn’t much better, except for the rain that is comming. The garden can do with a lot of rain. But I am looking forward to nice warm days, soon I hope.
