FROZEN

Frost in the garden and a bit of sun, turns the garden into a Winter wonderland.

When I was taking these pictures in my garden my puppy fell through the thin ice cover on the pond, lucky she was able to come out quickly. I wrapped her dry with a big towel and kept her with me wrapped in a fleece blanket. I was shocked as she is tiny (mini Maltese).

Have a great weekend all.

Big and beautiful

Big and beautiful, that’s how I describe the AMARYLLIS. In a time where very few plants are in bloom you can always count on the amaryllis. You can buy them as bulbs and grow them inside your house but they are also for sale in every plantshop in Winter, in a pot in bloom or as cut flowers. The red ones are very popular for Christmas but they come in many colours. I was given a bunch as a gift and I was very pleased with it. Just looking at them made me happy.

AMARYLLIS
I HOPE YOU WILL ALL HAVE A COLOURFUL,HAPPY AND HEALTHY 2020 !

PRETTIER IN WHITE

Today we had our first snow of this Winter so everything is covered in a pretty white layer and  my garden looks a lot better now than before the snow came.

EVEN MY DOORMAT LOOKS PRETTY NOW

There is not much going on in my garden at the moment alas.

I hope you are all happy and well.

MR FROSTY

Mr Frosty came and gave all the greenery a fine white layer of white crystals and made a dull garden pretty again.
