#24016 The Irises will bloom soon and add a bit of luxurious touch to this purple-bluish tone bouquet.

Geum 'Apricot Pearl' - I bought the bare root and planted it last spring, but there was no flower at all. Then, I forgot it, until it decided to bloom. Same as Thalictrum Lupine starts to show some colors - this year, I have about 10 plants in different corners. My first Kenzan pinholder -...

#24015 Spring Collection After a few days... Different flowers have different vase life, therefore, adding some new flowers can create a different vibe for sure. The peonies look good in the garden, however, we would have rain later this week. Besides, this is a very young peony plant...

My beloved Peony is blossoming! I ordered it in 2022 spring, received and planted the tuber in 2022 autumn. Last year, it offered one flower, and this year, although I transplanted it (and Peonies don't like such kind of moving), there are 5 flower buds. Today, the first one is blossoming. I...

Okay, I just did some not that pleasant work in the afternoon - dividing the mini water-lilies I bought three years ago and brought back from my FIL's garden. Uh, I didn't plant to divide them at all, but it is slimy and smelly, yuck. I took them out from the original container and tried to...

Hey, cheer up. Our garden is a true nightmare for many people, because tremendous effort and time are needed to maintain it. This might be the reason why nobody bought it for a while, and we (DH and I) had totally no idea about that as we are city kids. After we moved in, I did so many...

It's great you like it, Steve. Let me share the night mode~ I hope, the emtire pond area will turn into a very lovely spot in another few weeks.

same here, but I will ensure my mobile/camera are ready tonight!

One more corner is ready for summer! Sanding and re-painting May is the month that most of the flowering perennials start to shine.

Yes, it can be seen in northern part of Europe till Switzerland, too. I will stay up a bit tonight. However, I read that a warning was announced as it might affect the communication and power supply.

Something funny, I saw this kind of 'indoors' germination several times for tomatoes, but, it's my first time seeing this in a melon. The melon itself is fine, not overripe at all. The seeds just can't wait to grow! Well, you got what you want, and let's see where will this lead us to? :D

Compared with what this small piece of land looked like in early 2023, it's an absolutely correct decision to re-build smaller chicken runs but with roofs. It will remain a terribly bare and muddy land if we didn't make the decision to redo the runs. Also I well accepted the fact that I just...

On a broken Peony tuber, an bud decided to grow. I grew some Dahlias from seeds this year and pinched them to encourage the side shoots. Instead of discarding the pinched tops, I took them as cuttings and tried propagating them. I don't expect a 100% successful rate, but obviously, some are...

Some critters stole my lettuces again from below, well, I have closed to 60 (or 70) lettuces, not big deal. However, I am not willing to share further. Yes, this raised bed belongs to the very early ones and had no hardware clothes yet. The landscape fabric underneath might be damaged anyway...

A pretty big Lilac basal shoot (with roots), after 13 months - it is an independent and healthy plant now. The tine basal shoot is also much bigger now, I will share the photos tomorrow. Rainy day, nothing too special in the garden - but I repotted some seedlings to bigger pots. Then, DH and...

A volunteer pansy Sharing strawberries with our hens Enjoyed a homemade meal in the greenhouse (winter garden)

A very lady-like moment with bling-bling eyes, awww but in the next moment, she... :lol:

I used garden soil in one of the containers, but just received the aqua soil today. The first one did cloud the water a bit, but I don't care about that too much. I saw different birds are drinking from it, so it works in the way it should, in my opinion.
