    You are surrounded by flowers both inside and out and what could be more pleasant than that? I think that the thing I like best in the garden right now is the profusion of primula - a hardy, tough, attractive little plant if ever there was one it is such a burst of colour as I come into the driveway.

      I agree David, primula is a pleasant plant, it's very hardy in our climate.

      Marijke, I am very glad that I purchased greenhouse last year. Now when the nights are cold for tender plants as petunia I can store them inside the greenhouse.
      Hugs!

    Hello Nadezda,

    Your flowers are looking so beautiful. The St. Paulia is so pretty. Many of the same flowers bloom here too. Our climate are very similar.
    Happy gardening!
    Hugs

      You're right Marit, our climate is similar, the flowers grow and start to blossom. I wait for a plum tree blossoming.
      Happy May!

    Lovely picture of the Iris xiphium, love the colour. Spring is the best time of year and you have Summer to look forward to. Autumn is nice but Winter is always at the back of your mind. Have a great gardening season Nadezda.

      I agree, Alistair, these bright blue irises are pretty, and they were a suprise to me because I forgot where I have planted the bulbs :-)
      Now I do not want to mention winter.

    I don't grow petunias from seed, but I always enjoy choosing unusual ones.

      Petunias are in different colors, I prefer mix of red/purple and white. I can imagine Jenny your nice flowers, do you plant them in hanging baskets?

    Flowers in your garden are already a distant history in ours. Past weeks have been very warm and dry, so the tulips are main show now.
    But your blooms are beautiful, both, in and out!

      Your tulips are ahead of mine, you're right Tistou.

    Hello Nadezda, already the pink Petunias of your header made me smile happily... and you have so many beautiful flowers at home and in the garden!
    The weather seems to be cool in St. Petersburg too; here it's snowing today, much. Oh no! :)

      I do hope your plants survive after these cold snowy days, Ida. Mine are in cold weather as well, but they are well. This church is an historical place and is beautiful, you're right.
