ON A SUNNY SUNDAY
The nice sunny Spring weather is continuing with now and then a good  soft shower, so perfect for growing plants. I started to give my plants coffee, yes coffee, it seems coffee is just as good as fertilizer and plants love it, also your indoor plants so I keep all my coffee grounds, mix them with a lot of water and pour it on the ground under my shrubs and plants. I have only just begun so I can’t tell you yet how my plants react to it but I’ll keep you up to date.
I took some pictures for you from the garden a moment ago.
ARABIS, AN EARLY FLOWERING LOW PLANT THAT BLOOMS FOR MONTHS ON END, PERFECT FOR A SUNNY SPOT IN THE ROCKGARDEN
I WAS SITTING NEXT TO MY SKIMMIA, reading a book and drinking coffee, Â AND IT WAS BUZZING WITH BEE’S
AND THE BUMBLE BEE’S TOOK OVER MY LILAC DWARF RODODENDRON, THEY WERE HAVING A BALL !
HERE IS A BETTER VIEW OF MY DWARF RODODENDRON, IT IS OVER 20 YEARS OLD SO IT IS NOT SO SMALL ANYMORE
AND MY WHITE HEATHER IS STILL BLOOMING, IT IS A PLANT YOU HAVE TO SEE UP CLOSE AS THE TINY FLOWERS ARE REALLY PRETTY !!! AND AN Â EARLY ATTRACTION FOR THE BEE’S AS WELL.
I HOPE YOU ARE ALL ENJOYING YOUR GARDENS, SPRING OR AUTUMN, DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU LIVE. HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND THANKS FOR VISITING.
FINALLY
I have been waiting for many months to see this one in bloom ! The buds were there for almost 6 months !! But with the nice Spring weather we have been having lately the flowers finally came out of hiding and they smell nice, the bee’s love it, the whole shrub is buzzing. What an awsome plant this one ; Skimmia Japonica  Kew Green.
THIS IS HOW THE PLANT LOOKED LAST SEPTEMBER AND ALL THROUGH WINTER UNTILL A FEW DAYS BACK.
Thanks for visiting !
SILENT SUNDAY
WORDLESS WEDNESDAY
THE FUN CONTINUES
We had such a lovely week so far with lots of sun and finally a bit of warmth we were longing for. And you could see the garden change every day.
THIS WAS YESTERDAY
THIS WAS A FEW DAYS AGO, MY AMELANCHIER
Have a great weekend all and thanks for visiting !
THE GARDEN CHANGES EVERY DAY.
It very much feels and looks like Spring at the moment and the garden is comming to life rapidly but the forecast is that we’ll get another Winter period in a few days time so I better enjoy it while I can. I finally started working in the garden and it feels good, I haven’t been able to do much for the last 2 years what with my broken wrist who turned out to be wrongly handled followed by my husbands illness and then my wrist operation…. but now I am ready to start again. And believe me there is a LOT to do !!
I took some pictures for you yesterday.
THE EVER ADORABLE LITTLE VIOLA
VIBURNUM BODNANTENSE WITH A LOVELY SCENT
SUNNY LITTLE DAFFS TETE A TETE, ONE OF THE EASIEST AND MOST TRUSTWORTHY AMONGST THE DAFFS
ANOTHER VIEW OF MY CROCUSSES IN THE FRONT GARDEN, THEY ARE EXCEPTIONALLY BEAUTIFUL THIS YEAR
MALE AND FEMALE BLOOMS OF THE CURL HAZEL
AND THE BUDS OF MY AMELANCHIER ARE GETTING BIGGER BY THE DAY AS THEY USUALLY START FLOWERING AT THE END OF MARCHI
So I had a bit of a rest, now I can go back to working in the garden.
Have a great Sunday !
PICTURE OF THE DAY
WHAT’S IN BLOOM IN MY GARDEN TODAY
Not much but it is a start. We had a long cold and wet Winter and it is not over yet but plants are starting to grow, buds are getting bigger, unfortunately weather forecasters say we are not going to get nice Springweather for at least a forthnight. I hope they are sooo wrong about that !!!
I have only 2 Â bloomers at the moment.
MY WHITE HEATHER
AND MY CROCUSSES
Have a great Sunday all and thanks for visiting !
