The little bit rain we had has made
a huge difference to the garden
Colchicum (autumn crocus) are making
bright patches among the weeds . . .
the wet makes them fade quickly
but if you pick a few, they last for a week indoors
the passionfruit vine is covered in blooms
most unusual in autumn but
I'm not complaining
they are such a joy to see
in fact, the whole garden is
as if it were spring
even I seem to have more spring in my step

Die Blüten sind wunderwunderschön, Arija!!! Ich habe Passionsblumen noch nie in einem natürlichen Umfeld gesehen und auch die Herbst-Krokusse kannte ich bisher nicht...sieht wirklich nach Frühling aus :)
ReplyDeleteEinfach traumhafte Fotos! Die Passionsblumen finde ich so schön! Und dann noch mit den feinen Tropfen.... wunderschön!
ReplyDeleteAs unusual as spring is there at this time of year I'm glad it's put a spring in your step.
ReplyDeleteI fell in love with passion fruit in South Africa and now I see the flowers are beautiful.
Happy Fall/Spring (?)... I get my seasons confused, because of the summer-like winter we have here in Florida. You have a better excuse to forget which season it is -- your Fall is acting like Spring. Wonderful rain for any time of the year!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great blog, Arija. Each post more interesting and accomplished than the last. Love the sweet kitten post above, but the garden photos are spectacular. Your passionflower is amazing!
