It’s snowy and cold outside right now, but indoors I have a garden of sorts in my kitchen.
The orchids, amaryllis and hibiscus have all been taking turns blooming away and it’s been lovely. It’s so nice to have flowers indoors in the winter – especially when they aren’t cut flowers in a vase!
This is a photo of my purple Orchid. All three of my Orchids are now in bloom, but this one is the prettiest with it’s purple lines on white petals. I think it looks a bit like a very ornate butterfly – don’t you?
This is a rose bud from one of my antique roses – Compte de Chambord. This rose’s flowers put out a strong rose perfume scent. I love being in my garden in the early morning, early evening or just after I’ve watered when these roses are in bloom as the scent is heavenly.
Of course this rose is not blooming now. It’s warmed up here in Toronto, but it’s only a mid-winter thaw … but soon … soon, my flowers will start to grow again.
I think I’m avoiding winter. Notice that I haven’t posted one winter related photo … all the recent photos have been autumn related? It’s not like you can ignore a season like winter – not with all the snow we’ve had, but I’m doing my best, at least on this blog!
Again, this is a photograph of a local park that we take our dog to so that she can burn off some of that extra energy she has. She loves it and so do we, I mean, look how pretty it is, even in autumn?
Ok, I’ll try to take some winter photos … won’t be pretty though, especially since we’ve had a “warm” spell and the snows melting and everything is puddles and mud! But I’ll try.
