Dear readers,
I wish you all a happy Garden Bloggers´ Bloom Day-February 2018! This has been a very creative month for me. I started transforming my second terrace wall and have been doing many terracotta pots, which I can´t wait to plant up soon. I also had fun doing some more wreaths from branches. Most importantly, I have also been enjoying many blooms in my garden and on my terraces this month. Although we also had some snow, the weather was mostly mild and spring doesn´t seem far anymore! I am especially happy with my hellebores and cyclamen coum. Theses plants seem to do so well in my garden. I´d like to thank Carol from http://www.maydreamsgardens.com for hosting Garden Blogger´s Bloom Day. Please visit her blog to see which plants bloom for other garden bloggers this month.Have a lovely week!
Best wishes,
Lisa
This beautiful helleborus plant really surprised me. It had been totally covered by leaves until its pretty blooms popped up only two days ago. Didn´t even remember that I planted a helleborus in that spot.
My rosemary has bloomed throughout winter. As you can see, it is a pink blooming variety. I bought it while being on a garden vacation to England in June 2017. I am really glad I took it with me. Whenever I see it I am thinking of my garden vacation.
As you see in this picture, I started doing my second terrace wall. I am not very far yet, but hope to nevertheless finish it soon. |
Here you see some of the planters I did this month. I really enjoy working with clay. I find it very relaxing and it helps passing cold winter days.
Wow, you have worked really hard. All those terra cotta pots and tiles! I am impressed! The table with spring flowers is mouthwatering. Lovely! The double helleborus looks so beautiful in soft pink. Happy Bloggers Bloom Day. Groetjes Hetty

I see we have some of the same flowers blooming in the garden. Your Hellebores are very pretty, and you got some nice shots of the Cyclamen and the bee. Your terrace looks lovely, I was going to say you have some really stunning terra cotta pots, but -- it looks like you MADE some stunning terra cotta pots! Well done.
