Poppy in bloom

My garden in May

My garden in May looks very green. I didn’t buy lots of new plants because I was not sure which ones will pop up from last year. But, in a couple of weeks, I will go to some garden centres and get some more plants to replace the ones that didn’t make it. All of […]

My garden in April

Exactly one month ago, on the 26th, I made the last update, now it’s time for My garden in April update. I took the pictures earlier today. Check the March post is you want to see the transformation, it’s huge. I planted a few more bulbs, hence the need for some exploratory excavation. I found […]

My garden in March

My garden in March

Three weeks ago I shared pictures with my garden and talked about the new lawn. Well, it’s for the new update: My garden in March. I took the pictures a couple of days ago, when the weather was nicer. Now is raining, and while the garden still looks lovely, I’m not keen on spending time […]

My garden in February

I will make a monthly update of my garden, starting with this one, on February. Another one will follow at the end of the month, on March, of course. The garden looks a bit bare from afar, but the things change when you take a closer look, which is lovely. I’ve planted some bulbs and […]

Garden Update

Garden Update

I didn’t imagine that in late October I’m going to make a garden update. A few months ago I shared pictures with my newly refurbished garden. Now many of the flowers are still in bloom, while the passiflora got much bigger. We still have lots of bees flying into our garden. I just love it. […]

My new garden

I’m finally sharing pictures from my new garden. I’ve been using the garden, since it’s done, every single day. If is not raining or is not too hot, I would spend time in the garden reading for University. I even listen to lectures, with the headphones on, of course, as I imagine none of my […]

Upcycled plant pots

Upcycled plant pots

This DIY project, for upcycled plant pots, was more a happy coincidence than something planned. I had these old plant pots for many years, here is a picture of them from four years ago, when they were still looking good. We replaced one of the garden fences and I painted some of the new fences […]

Passiflora, from a side

Passiflora update

I’ve made a Passiflora update last year, showing its development in the last years. It is grown from seed, a gift from my mother, sent by post from Romania. Comparing to this time last year (the pictures were taken about 2 weeks ago), it is amazingly huge. This is how big it is this year. […]

Enjoying the wildlife in our garden

Enjoying the wildlife in our garden

I’ve always wanted a garden and now that I have I do my best to enjoy it as much as I can. That mostly means enjoying the wildlife in our garden, besides playing with the dog, having some meals in, and, of course, doing a bit of gardening. In the last years, we’ve got only […]

passiflora in bloom

My Passiflora

Today I’m going to talk about my Passiflora. My mother send a pack of passiflora seeds a bit over five years ago. My husband and I planted the seeds and, from all, one picked up and grew and grew. After an year or so, we’ve moved to our new home and we took the passiflora […]
