Grandma's favourite red tulips




Red tulips from my grandma's old garden. 
She used to sit on a bench and count them. 
She loved them 💚

Frostbitten magnolia




This is my Alba Superba which was planted last year. For the first time (in my garden) it had 4 flowers. I couldn't wait to see them!
Unfortunately, all the flowers turned brown because the temperature was below 0 C. 




Last weekend I bought Susan, it's a late variety so it should be less susceptible to frostbites. I hope so :)



And here is Betty in my mom's garden.

Nasty weather





We're experiencing some nasty weather lately. The temperature fluctuates around 5 degrees by day and below 0 at night. 

What's even worse the bad weather is set to continue until May :(



I'm waiting for warmer days and bees to pollinate our fruit trees and bushes :)
