Anoter lovely dry clear day here, after yesterday's gorgeous weather.
And here is what I managed to find on the web...
Silence, ça pousse ! has been looking at blueberries and at the effects climate change has on plants and gardening. And they visited the garden of Ker Louis in Cap Fréhel, which has a large collection of rare plants and trees and is influenced by Japanese gardens.
Fortunately I managed to find a few garden bits on the web to watch later today.
Grünzeug visited the gardens of the castle in Schwetzingen, where they saw lots of plants in containers. They also have an item about a mediterranean herb garden and show how to prune roses.
Survived the storm yesterday, but more to come today, brrr.
Here is what I found on the web.
MDR Garten shows how to make tasty treats from apples, how those red Euphorbias which are all over the shops for Christmas ar grown, and how you can use herbs in Christmas decorations.
I had this post almost ready when it suddenly disappeared, grrrr
So here goes again.
Loads of stuff on the web today.
Master Gardening has the following...
Bud Qualk has a brand new house and with a brand new palette to paint from. Join Bud as gives a tour of his landscaping -- telling of the work he has done and the work he will do in the near future.

Strange, no idea what those smilies are doing in the middle of those ZDF links.
Here they are again, in case the ones in the previous post don't work, because they look really weird.
I hope these ones turn out alright...

The ones with the smilies in the first post seem to work though...
