This week has been characterized by strong wind and chilly weather.
After the hot & sunny May we are back to normal :)
The DRAUGHT is severe and many plants suffer despite of watering.
 |
| Rhododendron Catawbiense 'Roseum Elegans' or 'Grandiflorum' |
I have only two rhododendrons and they are really sad looking in this draught.
Some blooms anyhow, this puple is Catawbiense 'Roseum Elegans' or 'Grandiflorum'.
The shrub is big and old, I do hope it survives.
 |
| Cornus alba 'Gouchhaultii' - Keltakirjokanukka |
 |
| I have blue & dark purple pansies in five containers together with lime mummularia... |
 |
| Somehow alliums are far less and smaller than last year, and also many aquilegias seem to have disappeared. My post in 2017 of alliums & this rhododendron |
 |
| Meconopsis cambrica - Keltavaleunikko / Hemerocallis - Keltapäivänlilja |
 |
| Plantago media - Soikkoratamo |
Plantago media is a fun plant that I like very much. It self sows eagerly in odd places...

But despite the weather I have found this and that to do in my outdoor gym.
Soon I'll be super fit!
Me and Sissi wish you a relaxing weekend!
