happy days....

happy days....

Oh Gosh Christmas came early to me again, called Liga and Violeta. I was a bit nervous to meet new people, i knew from Garden ie.. You know we sit in the silent, nothing to talk, long talks about weather....- not at all.  was like a meeting of good friends with a cup of coffee. rain never stops gardeners from going outside (hope Liga did not catch a cold??). we talk and we talk. thanks to Liam (Ligas hubby)for all the tips on veg. great i do promise to do better next year. And kids just went free- as they always do....

Hope we meet again. and its not cause Violeta and Liga were so generous with some spare plants......  they probably got more for me then some garden centres- red flowering strawberries(Violeta), yellow flowering from Liga. Yellow Iris from Violeta just to finish my pond and nice foxgloves to plant between the roses from Liga. my new flower looked so bare before girls came with all lobelias,  campanulas, heuchera, veronica, cornations , morning glory (red), helenium and more and more... i realy love to see their garden - if they have so many spare plants... I promise to look after them and enjoy every moment, every new blossom.... thanks.

P.s Liga i do promise to keep the labels and remember more names....
