April Flowers in Bordeaux
Apologies to those of you who have already seen photos of my pyjama pants making their Bordeaux appearance alongside this stunning pink jasmine ( 15 metres! 50 feet! high -- imagine the fragrance!). . .
but I want to assure you that as much as I think about the garden I left at home (hope the apple blossoms are calling the bees and that they stay open for my friend S.). . .
I am finding blooms and greenery aplenty here in Bordeaux. Chestnut trees bloom white and pink all over the city
and in the park nearby, trees dip their leaves toward the water while a carpet blooms under their canopy. . .
We've a few days of cloud and rain ahead, but so far the weather's been delightful.
Viburnum (opulus?)
The houses generally front right up to the sidewalk here, but the residents still manage ways to bring greenery to the street. . . climbing up walls like the Parthenocissus above or drooping from a sturdy frame built above a wall like the wisteria below. . .
More wisteria (Glycine, it's called here) drips ever so romantically from a green wrought-iron bridge in the park where I ran this morning. . . .
So don't worry about me -- apparently, I can find flowers and greenery enough to reconcile me to being away from my own garden through what might be its best months. I am curious to know, though, whether our wisteria will bloom this year or not. . . .
Now tell me, how are your gardens growing? And if you haven't a garden of your own, have you found one or many to admire or to help tend? Or, perhaps, you've found a way to wear a garden, as I seem to be doing with my pyjama pants ;-)
