I took a photo of this guy but never realised what a huge double chin he had but he is a happy chappie.
At least I don't have to clean the chairs the rain keeps them nice.
My lime tree is a mass of these tiny little buds, same as last year but this is very early, I got two limes last year hoping for three this year.
This tree is doing well wish I knew what it is.
The jasmine is just starting to bud everything is so early hoping for a early spring like me.
The gnome's chin looks like a flesh coloured scarf around his neck.
ReplyDeleteI could paint it a different colour then he wouldn't look so fat.

You are getting much more rain than we are. A surprising number of things are out up here too. I don't mind an early spring - so long as summer doesn't push her way in.
ReplyDeleteYes a long spring would be nice but a long summer that's not so good.
DeleteMerle..............
I haven't noticed any jasmine budding here yet, thank goodness, but I did notice plenty of buds on my freesias, there were none two days ago :)
ReplyDeleteWe've had a good share of rain too, it's nice to see everything washed clean.
I hope you find all our blogs again soon. Can you get to us by clicking on the name at our comments?
Looks like all back now, I turned it all off went out and left it for a while maybe it just wanted a holiday lets hope it stays that way.

ReplyDelete... could that be an avocado tree? Certainly looking wet. The climate just doesn't know which end is up I think... YAM xx
Could be I often throw my fruit seed into the garden, I will just watch it and see.

Hello, your garden must love all the rain. It looks lush and beautiful. I would love to grow some jasmine and limes. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteThe jasmine is everywhere and the flowers smell wonderful.
DeleteI got two limes last year hoping for more this year.
Merle.........
We're all still here, so don't worry. I hope you have an early spring, too.
ReplyDeleteAll better now I think.
DeleteMerle..........
.. hi Merle... I think the gnome's double chin is a beard.... paint it white and pretend it is anyway.. xxxxxx
ReplyDeleteI'm getting a bit sick of the rain...
I've had a Hyacinth bloom already and it's a spring bulb.. crazy ... xxxx
have a good week... hugs.... Barb xxx
Some early blooms but they do not look as big to me.
DeleteI was thinking of doing a scarf with spots on it.
Merle.........
Your garden is looking beautiful after the rain. My irises are blooming already which is very unusual. Hope we have a mild spring and summer this year.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping for a long and mild spring and summer too.
DeleteMerle...........
It has been so dry here this year. I wish we had gotten the spring rain. A lot of my perennials were shorter than usual. I've been out there watering practically every night. Enjoy your lime tree Merle.
ReplyDeleteWe must have got your rain, but we are just coming into spring but I have a feeling this year the summer will be hot and long.
DeleteMerle............
Hi Merle, computer problems are frustrating....the rain is keeping everything looking fresh and green ( and clean ) and gives you an excuse to stay cozy inside. You'll have to make something special with those limes this year - mojitos sound good to me :)
ReplyDeleteWe had lots of flowers last year and no fruit so here is hoping this year,
DeleteMerle.........
Oh, the rain is making your garden green, Merle. You know, Jasmine is my favorite scent. That little guy with the double chin looks sweet in your garden. :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it nice when your computer starts working again? Mine has been running terribly slow these days.
