Blue Cavern

The snow is slowly melting in our garden and the flowers are starting to show.

Here are the ones we have so far. The other ones don´t have any flowers yet. Last year I got a lot of tulips on my birthday and I am existed to see how they will look when they show in april or may.

These are called vintergäck in swedish. Maybe winter aconite in english??

I'm not sure what they're called, but they're lovely. It's great to see the spring flowers!

Aren't the first flowers the most beautiful ones each year

Hi Andre, what a coincidence, spring isn't here yet, but I guess it will be tomorrow.

Here in New York we had snow on the first day of spring,
but the snow did not stick to the ground.

Snow today and cold weather next week.

I guess I have to wait for more flowers to show.

Sounds very nice Joaquin and Maureen.

I had 25 degrees Celsius in the garden house when the sun was shining.

But when the clouds showed it dropped to 7 degrees later the same day.

I spent the weekend cleaning the yard from all the stuff that shows now when the snow melts. We will probably get 5 degrees below zero this night but on thursday it will be warmer again.

Here is a picture of my pond today.

It frozen now but in the summer it has a lot of flowers and watersalamanders( both big and small version). I can´t wait to see them again this year. They are probably still sleeping under a stone or under leafes, waiting for the spring.

It will be nice to see that pond in the spring and summer.

Unfortunatly Hilary,

we got a lot of snow here yesterday. This is the pond today.

But this weekend and the next week will be warmer and maybe 10 degrees.

Hope I get to see my flowers again soon.

Here is the gardenhouse today.

Last week it was 25 degrees inside.

Soon we will grow herbs and tomatoes inside.

Just wants to get rid of the "stupid" snow first.
