April 20 and 25C!
The Design Daffodils are showing!
No rain to dampen their spirits!
And no rain for the week ahead.

And these are looking good too!

An afternoon out in Baarn included a walk to a garden centre to get ideas...

and see new flowers!

Then a walk to Kasteel Groeneveld Park.

And at home we were creative!

The Netherlands Tile Museum A trip to Roosendaal

and to Breda

No, that's no Lens Error on my digital camera today! That seems to be ok now. Just have to make sure that there's not a lot of dust, sand and dirt around the lens when it's closed. Dropped in at the Kringloop today on the way back from the allotment. Never have seen a lamp like this! And that is where it stayed!

Some plants made it through the long white winter while others did not.

Planted 2 new Rheum palmatum Tanguticum

Brought out an old cookbook this morning! Found a recipe to use cornmeal!

Stopped in at Hoogvliet in Soest last week to grocery shop...

A great way to test a recipe and test my camera !

and thanks to camerarepair.blogspot via Google, it works!

And a walk through the garden to test the camera ! How the Hosta's are growing! and these...

...too will soon be in bloom!

The latest to be planted! Seems the camera is working!

I saw this super flower shop on wheels in Soest today! Here's a great plant stand idea!

The potatoes are in at the allotment! More Spring !

Fun gardening days at Buitenzorg... ...and at the allotment!

A few more containers for veg!

And a new "garage" at Buitenzorg!

And it's Friday! Where does the week go?! The trees are bursting with Spring colours! Even mowed the lawn this evening after a 4 month winter break! The campsite renovations at Buitenzorg have started! There has been a backhoe at work for three days!

See! See the difference? The roots and trees are gone !

Part 2 of the garden has a future!
