VIBURNUM BODNANTENSE, the flowers are tiny, not really spectacular but they smell nice and bloom from Autumn till Spring. There are so many different Viburnums that you can have in the garden that you have Viburnum blooms 12 months per year !

HYACINT, this is not a bloom but a surprise, they are suposed to flower in March-April and it is only the 2nd of January today !!!

Winter has been very mild so far but wet wet wet ! But I’m not complaining, everything is better than snow and ice !!!

Have a great first week all and thanks for visiting !

MY GARDEN TODAY

I just took some pictures for you to see how my garden looks at the moment as it is snowing again…..It is pretty but I am not of fan !

AND MY POOR POTPLANTS !!!!

As you may know I live in Belgium and that is a tiny country, at the moment there are traffic jams all over the country for a total of 1000 kilometers (yes one thousand !!!!!) and planes can’t leave or land, that’s the problem here when it snows it is COMPLETE chaos !! And the fun is not over yet. On the other hand lots of people have fun of course, especially the kids.

Have a great week all and thanks for visiting.

OMG

I can’t believe my eyes, it is SNOWING !!!! I hate snow ! Luckily it is not cold enough to cover the ground and make the roads slippery. Snow is a problem here as we don’t get it often. Under normal circumstances we have loads and loads of traffic jams but when it snows…..disaster !!! and lots of extra work for the hospitals……
