It's mid-March, temps +3 +4 С. Therefore I went to the garden to see my plants and the summer cottage. Winter didn't want to leave. In the suburb the snow was still lying, water was seen under it. This is how the road looked like under the wheels - puddles and small pieces of melted snow (above).
Entering the garden through the gate, I realized that the snow was deep and wet. It was necessary to clear the paths. My summer cottage looked at me with its windows closed for the winter. I opened the front door, came in, changed my boots and coat and took a shovel to work.
Cleared paths to the cottage porch then to the gazebo to fill the bird feeder. Plants were mostly covered with snow, only evergreen rhododendrons felt the temperature of +4 C and straightened their leaves.
I think that in a week or so the snow will completely disappear and the first signs of spring will appear in the garden.
At least I want to think so!
Надежда, как у вас уже все по- весеннему. Зеленые рододендроны !!!
ReplyDeleteУ нас весна еще не чувствуется,,,хотя рассада уже растет.
Моя рассада тоже растет, Надежда. Весна чувствуется, но по ночам может быть еще минус.
DeleteHi Nadezda,
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job clearing the paths. I hope for you you will get spring soon. Last Thursday we got 40 cm with very heavy and wet snow. I think it will be a long time before it's spring here.
Hugs.
Winter does not want to leave, Marit, spring is in the daytime. The birds are singing joyfully, I hope it will get warmer soon.
DeletePaljon näyttää olevan vielä lunta siellä teilläkin.
ReplyDeleteKevättä odotellessa.
So do I, Anemone. Spring is around the corner.
DeleteI am very happy to know that you filled the bird feeders. Good work, Nadezda!
ReplyDeleteDavid, I always feed the birds when I come to the garden. They love sunflowers seeds and lard.
DeleteHola Nadezda. Que lugar tan bonito. Pronto estará lleno de color. Es maravilloso ver el Rododendro tan verde y tan bonito. Besos.
ReplyDeleteLos rododendros son plantas de hoja perenne y les va bien en invierno.
Delete¡Abrazos!
Spring is very close dear Nadezda and you will enjoy every flower. :) Sending you lots of love, stay healthy and very happy. <3 :)))
ReplyDeleteDear Agnieszka, thanks for your kind words.
DeleteI need health now. Spring is coming and I will be gardening.
Good afternoon dear Nadezda,
ReplyDeleteWow what a snow and you've had a lot of work to do to clear the path. But in a couple of days the snow will be gone and you be welcomed by the springflowers.
Have a wonderful day
Marijke
I do hope Marijke, I will see spring flowers soon, at least at the end of March.
DeleteHappy Wednesday!
Hi Nadezda! We still have to wait a few weeks before we get to the garden to do things;-))
ReplyDeleteSo have I, Anne. Snow is still deep and wet in the garden.
DeleteHappy Wednesday!
Boa tarde minha amiga. Obrigado pelas lindas imagens.
ReplyDeleteThank you Luiz
DeleteHi Nadezda. Your snowy views are pretty but I am sure you are anxious for spring. We had a very snowy February, but March is bringing spurts of better weather. Spring does arrive in four days!
ReplyDeleteI agree Lee, the vernal equinox is coming soon. But today it was snowing again despite spring :-)
DeleteLet's wait for better days.
Tieni duro! Ormai la neve sta sgocciolando e la primavera farà capolino! Almeno il terreno sarà bagnato, qui secco da una settimana con vento forte!
ReplyDeleteBuona serata e buon inizio primavera :)
I'm waiting, Gabriel. You're right the soil is wet, much snow to melt.
DeleteSpring is coming.
Por aquí ya se ve la primavera, los arboles frutales ya están casi todos florecidos. Abrazos.
ReplyDeleteQue lindo, Teresa! Puedo imaginar la belleza que te rodea.
DeleteFeliz semana.
O, we have +10- +15. So snowdrops’re blooming frantically, and crocuses too. A couple of days was pretty cold, but the sky is blue, and spring is in the air
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you have spring Irina.Love blooming vernal flowers.
DeleteThere is still so much snow out there, but spring is almost here and with it all nature is born again.
ReplyDeleteTake care and stay well
Hugs
Yes Maria is spring late, but there is a spring mood.
DeleteYour photos made me shiver.
ReplyDeleteHa ha Sue. We have to wait for spring.
DeleteOh you have so much snow in you garden! Hopefully it will melt away soon! Happy spring dear Nadezda!
ReplyDeleteI do hope as well Tistou.
DeleteHappy weekend!
Dear Nadezda,
ReplyDeleteisn't is a long winter this year? Waiting for spring with you :)!
Happy days and all my best
Elisabeth
Yes it is Elizabeth. Next week forecast +9 C. Hopefully snow will melt at all.
DeleteHugs!
It does look very chilly but how lovely to have a cottage to go to. Is it very far from your city home?
ReplyDeleteJenny, you're right, it's great to have a summer house 40 minutes from city.
DeleteWhen I get there, there is just amazing silence.
