oh, also love your garden. its so equal to the german plants ( klimazone ) but still different. also having hostas and hoichera and loving them. the cactus ( guess its a prickly pear? ) and the agave are always outsite or are they need to stay inside over the winter??

ohh and very envious because of your citrus plants. i so love there smell when there bloom. just lovely. problem here is they need to get insode during the winter but with a special "colder" player and we dont have that in our house.

also a lovely garden mate. its realy enjoyable and interesting to see lot of similarities but then again many differences in the plants.

thank you. Well the cactus was put inside when younger, but now its outside permanent, its just on the border ith him outside, but he recuperates quite fast after winter. Agavas go indoors every season, as do our citruses, we have a dedicated garage space for them and burn wood stove there to keep it warm enough so they dont freeze. Cars stay outside, plants inside XDDD Thank you, as well, when i look at yours ones its reall nice for inspiration and ideas to incorporate.

Thank you for the garden pics
We love to spend time in our garden, both taking care of it and just sitting and enjoying the beauty and tranquility.
This cornell is one of my wife’s favourites (more pics to come later):

Our lavender and steppe sage have grown big this year. Also we've got a few new plants for a pot in front of the door.

So mowed the lawn (Music: ac/dc Razors Edge and then Five Bridges by The Nice) then the Mrs decided to use the moss rake thingy on it. Which meant that it needed to be mowed again. Pics: Pre moss removal and post moss removal and recut! Birds: male and female redpoles, though you cannot see the vivid red.

They are fine as they are! The Mrs would have the lawn cut to about 1mm but have been keeping it longer as it will help it and the ground is too uneven to get a decent cut all over when going short. Will put feed and moss killer down today so it will look awful next week!

Please don’t. This is a rose journey started in 1996 and we’ve been having this as our #1 priority so to speak in the garden. They are indeed a source of joy every summer (and some care, ”delegated” by my missus to me but I don’t mind).

Had cut down the bamboo last weekend. There where all at the same Level and after a bit more as a week the fresh shoots are groving over 1m

 

[dcyper]

"what did you give them to grow that fast"? Laka-poo?

What do you do to "contain" them? Your fresh shoots seem to "shoot" from the center, not from the sides?
