The yearly visit to Bergslagen

Every year we go for a short walk among the old wooden houses and the roses in Bergslagen, Ronneby. https://lagottocattleya.wordpress.com/2013/06/24/9685/

I used to make a wreath every Midsummer for my daughter

This is another very old bush rose, called ”thousand-leaves rose”

The high jasmin hedge fills the night air with a heavenly scent

The poppies rained away yesterday…

…but the others are still standing

I love these dark irises

Weekly Photo Challenge: Room

7 juni, 2014 / Leya / 31 kommentarer

This week’s photo challenge is called Room – for us to interpret the way we feel. A room for me to love, must contain flowers and plants and it must contain books. As books and humidity don’t go that well together, my real dream will never come true. There will have to be at least two rooms… But, here’s a dream medley, finished off with what comes closest – in my home.
