It reminds me of 'The Secret Garden' when Mary - not knowing a thing of what she was doing - pushed away the decay and gave space to the little miracle of growing shoots so they could breathe and get the sun! And that sounds like what you were doing - soaking in the pale spring sun! WONDERFUL! SPRING! Alas, there's still quite a bit of snow, here, and more forecast but, still, the snow isn't very deep at all and the temperatures keep hovering above freezing. There was some MUD today! Yay!<br /><br />Even better yet, there was no chill wind and there was bird song and fog on the pond. Delicious! It is just time for me to order my seeds. Our last frost and planting date is the beginning of June.<br /><br />Take care! I have been thinking of you and your family!!!<br /><br />Hugs and best heart wishes to you all!!!<br /><br />Me xxoKaty Noellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08972227249393814417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907830779862347023.post-53487163196371233672013-02-24T18:20:11.640+01:002013-02-24T18:20:11.640+01:00Quelles jolie fotos Madelief J`adore !!

I have been trying to get the purple ones, but the garden centres only have white. I will need to go to a Nursery I think.<br />Thank you for your visit.

Wat heb jij mooie helleborussen! Bij ons willen die niet echt... Maar net als jij heb ik ook nog heel wat opruimwerk. En in deze kou ben ik al een hele tijd bezig met een binnenhuisproject: het herbehangen en herschilderen van onze wachtkamer. Ik wou per se een chinoiseriebehang en na en lange zoektocht heb ik gevonden wat ik zocht. Van zodra het helemaal klaar is (behalve de gordijnen, ik zoek van die oude olijfgroene velours, of van die zijde met moiré-effect) maak ik een blogpost. <br />Anneliesle ciel flamandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18231265427559298096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907830779862347023.post-73922359265522541832013-02-22T14:24:41.428+01:002013-02-22T14:24:41.428+01:00How wonderful springtime is with snowdrops and hel...How wonderful springtime is with snowdrops and helleborus, <br />I am waiting, but here it's -10 and a very cold wind...Tins roserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16882829054188172877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907830779862347023.post-91125293101564834382013-02-21T08:08:46.234+01:002013-02-21T08:08:46.234+01:00Dear Madelief,
