Special One

(Flemish for special one)

We have some small patches of white wood anemones.

And then the kenderman spotted a single lilac one...

Wow!

Let's enjoy this Spring weekend!!!!

Last night my dad sent me an email beginning with a, to me moving, sentence:

- Al is onvermijdelijkheid voorzien... daarmee wordt aanvaarding niet vanzelfsprekend -

- Even when the inevitable is foreseen, acceptance isn't guaranteed -

Beauty

Because of the late spring a lot of plants are starting to flower at the same time.

This wood anemone is such a real beauty!

Garden

Anemone nemorosa (wood anemone)

Fritillaria meleagris

We have lots of those in our very wet field.

Just wait and see the flower opening........

Narcissus Snipe?

The first little star.
Just 10 cm in height.
The trumpet is still very yellow but it will fade into lemon, finally into white.
I'll keep you posted.

Corylus maxima 'Purpurea'
Purple Haze Hazel
This is the reason why the red squirrel visits us in autumn.
The beautiful buds and leaves in spring are as much a delight as the squirel in autumn!
