My Garden In August

 









A few years ago there was a very popular song where they sang: 

"Summer, oh summer, hot summer, be with me ...

 I so want summer not to end, to be with me, to give light ..." 

Now, many of you may say that the summer was so hot that we don't need such a summer anymore. 

Here in the north of Europe the summer was cool and some days in June July and August were really very hot. Moreover, there was no problem with watering, since the rains had time to fill the barrels with water.

The garden grew and blossomed in such a way that one could only wonder how quickly some plants faded and others bloomed. 

Lilacs, rhododendrons, roses, hydrangeas, phlox, calendula, chamomile, sedum. 

Hosta, potentilla, raspberries, plums, apples, currants, gooseberries.....

We, people, are surprised at how quickly our lives go by, how quickly events fly by. In nature, everything happens even faster - in a few warm months, the life cycle of plants passes.

I show photos of my garden in August. I shot them in mornings and evenings, because plants and flowers are always beautiful. 

All the best to you, my friends.

  1. Liebe Nadezda,

    Deine Impressionen sind ein Traum, Du hast ein Paradies mit so einer üppigen Blütenpracht. Das Foto von Deinem Garten mit vorne dem hellblau blühenden Rittersporn ist so schön.

    Bei uns ist es leider viel zu trocken und auch zu warm, man freut sich über jede Wolke.

    Sommerliche Grüße
    von Anke

    1. I'm sorry Anke that heat wave is still in your place. Here we have had a week of +30 C and I was tired of it and waited when temperature drops. Hugs.

    1. So do I Marit. Hydrangeas are beautiful in summer and in autumn when they get pink and red.

  3. Your garden looks absolutely terrific, Nadezda, especially when you consider the conditions over much of Europe. Living in the north has its advantages.

    1. David, these advantages are questionable. Only 5 months the temperature is above 0 C, the rest of the time - cold, snow, blizzard, cold rains ...

  5. I'm envious of your green grass - our lawn is a dust bowl.

  8. Nadezda, How beautiful your garden looks. As you are not going to worship the sun, I remember when I was visiting Sanpeterburgo people were sunbathing in the parks after the cold they had passed.

    1. Norma, the doctor won't let me sunbathe, which is a pity. But since I live and work in the garden, the sun's rays do their job.
