Gardens, insects, seeds, nature and science ...(photography is a hobby-most of posts are in English for fun ...and from my French garden in Normandy ).
Cloudy skies with some sunny spells, but ideal for black & white photos (or a similar style with a touch of color ). 📷
Forty years ago today, I married the love of my life,💍we had already been friends for ten years when we married. Here’s hoping for many more years💘 #Flowers #HappyAnniversary #Gardening #MarriedForLife #Nature #Summertime
Queen of of hearts. This fabulous n fragrant Oriental lily just opened toda! It's in a huge pot with my winter camellia tree. Just one bud but I am so happy! I have been wanting to redo the pot but luckily I waited. #Orientallily #pinkflowers #fragrantflowers #mygarden

Six On Saturday: Waxing lyrical
Anyone dealing with drought and hosepipe bans will be sending out the same woeful message. It’s tough. However there are some things to enjoy. So here’s my six for this week. One Tomato…

Afternoon all, six pics of whats flowering in my garden this first weekend of August. We've had a certain amount of rain and cooler temps this week so everything is looking a bit more fresh than it was! (See alt-text for details) #SixOnSaturday #Bloomscrolling #UKGardening #FlowerPhotography
In today's #SixOnSaturday... Mouse Garlic, Hydrangea paniculata 'Vanilla Fraise,' a yellow Cosmos sulphureus, Agapanthus & fragrant Roses 'Togmeister' & 'White Star' 🌱 onemanandhisgardentrowel.wordpress.com/2026/08/01/s...
#SixOnSaturday it has been hot, and a splash and dash 💦 here this past week. Still lots of flowers blooming but the vegetable garden is full of sun scorched or split tomatoes from the downpours💦🤷🏼♀️ #Flowers #Gardening #Summertime #Tropical #SummerFlowers #Nature
Wishing my Bluesky 🦋 #fungifriends a very happy #Fungifriday afternoon with these crowds of woodland #mushrooms.
More vibrant ginger blooms are appearing now that rain is almost a daily presence 💦💦 #Flowers #Gardening #Tropical #GingerFlowers #TropicalFlowers #Summertime
Quiet time close to the 2nd pond #waterlilies #japanesefountain 🌱💦
It’s a triple pollinator day on the Orange Tithonias 😂 even though there’s plenty of flowers they all want the same one 🐝 #Bees #Flowers #Gardening #Plants #Nature #Summertime #FlowerReport
In 2023 I grew several types of kale to find my favorite variety. I found the contrast between cultivars very attractive.
Finally, it’s raining! ☔️ Not a drop since June 19th, and at least 2 heatwaves. #clivia first flowers (rescued from a green waste bin 3y ago—and it has worked!)🌱
Here's my #sixonsaturday 6 photos and a few words of description about what's going on in my UK garden this week - drought but also some #flowers n20gardener.com/2026/07/25/s... 🌱 #gardening
Six On Saturday: Drying out
I see that my last post on 4 July was titled Sunny Days. It is still sunny, but it has been very hot and dry and that is causing problems, as most UK SOSers will have discussed in the last few week…

🌱⏱️FAST ONE! Tetraploid Reblooming Hemerocallis (Daylily) 'Cosmic Struggle' (Karol Emmerich, 2009) wastes no time as preferential rebloom emerges. Karol hybridizes in Jordan, Minnesota - her flowers are beautiful & plants robust, Winter 🥶 hardy & heat 🔥 tolerant! Asphodelaceae
“Then Nature's voice its joy renews, And chequered field and grassy plain Hum with their summer songs again, A requiem to the day's decline, Whose setting sunbeams coolly shine; As welcome to day's feeble powers As falling dews to thirsty flowers.” – ‘July’ by John Clare #nature
I’ll end Moth Week with the most famous case of moth pollination: the #orchid Angraecum sesquipedale, in habitat in Madagascar. Dawin predicted that a moth must exist with a proboscis long enough to reach the nectar deep in the spur. He was right! #pollination #MothWeek #TeamMoth #Botany 🌾🧪🌱
This week’s #SixOnSaturday includes two Hydrangeas, Bell Flowers, Marsh Marigold, Hellebore and Verbena. Have a great weekend all! 🌱 #Gardening #UKGardening #FlowerFeed #BloomScrolling
#SixOnSaturday is another #RainyDay here so I’m inside waiting for #TurtleNation to appear😅I love the tiny pig planter with lime begonia, my idea😉 #Flowers #Plants #Gardening #Summertime #FlowerReport
