When we woke up this morning the garden looked completely white, snow white. We don’t get snow often and usually it doesn’t stay for long as the ground is not froozen. A few hours after I took a few pictures of my garden the snow was gone. But my garden looked very pretty in white.
Sorry for being absent a lot in the past month’s. Winter was grey , wet and soft and it was almost impossible to take nice pictures. In fact we had no real Winter, no snow, no ice, just a few light night frosts. March has been like real Spring although it is still Winter. The sky is bright blue, the sun shines and we enjoy the sun a lot. Nature starts to wake up and the first Spring flowers are in bloom. I just hope we don’t get heave frost in April or May, everything is possible and this will do a lot of damage.
TINY FLOWERS OF NARCISSUS TETE A TETE
Always on of the first in bloom and always reliable, you plant the bulbs in the soil and they come up year after year. So easy !
AMELANCHIER OR JUNEBERRY BUDS
Another one you can always rely on, the amalanchier tree, also called juneberry, I don’t know why they call it juneberry as it always flowers at the end of march ! In a few weeks time it will be covered in small white flowers and it will be buzzing with bees. Look at that blue sky we have at the moment . So much better than grey.
Although we can still expect snow and frost up till mid May. But at the moment it is warm and sunny and it is good to be able to do some much needed garden work.
I took some pictures for you all to see what is happening at the moment.
MY AMELANCHIER IS STARTING TO BUD AND WHEN IT STARTS BUDDING IT GOES FAST
SNOWDROPS, THE EASIEST OF THE BULBS
I DISCOVERED A FEW CYCLAMEN COUM UNDER A BUSH, I NEVER PLANTED THEM BUT I AM HAPPY TO SEE THEM IN MY GARDEN
HERE YOU CAN SEE THE BUDS OF NARCISSUS TETE-A-TETE, I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THEM IN BLOOM AGAIN
I know this is not much but it is the beginning of a whole new flowering season and it makes me happy.
