Spring Euforia


It comes every spring. A day when you kind of awaken from a bear's winter sleep.
I had today my awakening moment. The scent of spring in the air and bright sunshine!


1. I want this snow away from my terrace!
I want to put the table and chairs to their place so I chopped the thick snow layers 
into small peaces and think that by tomorrow they have gone.



2. The growth has started!
Here is the evidence. It is every year so astonishing to see how vigorous the plants are.
As soon they pop up from under the snow they start to grow.


3. Decorating the terrace
Probably this Tete à Tete pot shall freeze, but I couldn't  help it....


4. Sowing the herbs
I noticed that my thyme has survived the winter in a splendid state!
I'll sow different basilica varieties very soon onto the window sill...


5. The wood pigeons have arrived!
Wood pigeons are so cute, I love them. Had to content with photos from the last year.


I have had some tiny decorations inside too...
BTW
Have you read Hanya Yanagihara's novel A little Life?
In my opinion it was good alright, but oh how violent & disgusting!

Linking with
Mosaic Monday

I'll add here some spring green and my weekly Hai(na)ku.


Awakening, spring sprouts, hope under arm


Wishing you all a wonderful & happy spring!

  1. Voi kuinka kauniita kuvia! Nyt alkoi mieli tehdä narsisseja kotiin. Ihanan aurinkoisia ja valoisia kukkia.

  3. Hauska kontrasti keväisissä kukissa ja puhtaan talvisessa lumessa. Miten se onkin noin valkoista, meillä kaikki vielä maassa oleva on harmaan mustaa mössöä :D

  13. Happy Spring! It's one of my favourite time of year when things start to spring up from the ground again when everything has been so dull over the winter months.

    Happy Five on Friday!

  21. So in love with your beautiful daffodils --- and a little envious too, as you can imagine. They are stunning in the snow. (Almost enough to make me wish I lived somewhere where there was a real winter. But not quite -- I hate cold.) Thank you for sharing flowers I never see any more.

  23. I love the sound of the wood pigeons calling, I just wish they wouldn't eat the vegetable garden!

  24. Your photos of the daffodils are so pretty. I love the ones in the terracotta pot you've placed in the snow. I'm sure you will be pleased when the snow is gone. It's always a thrill to see the plants pushing through and I'm glad your hardy herbs have done well over the winter.

  25. Hello Riitta, your absolutely beautiful daffodils are stunning. I do love terracotta and to see yours looking like that makes me so happy. I'm glad you have awakened to Spring and can enjoy your garden once more. The bulbs are literally forcing their way up through the soil, they are so strong and healthy looking. The smells of the herbs must be a real treat for you too! The wood pigeons are sweet and I'm glad for you that they are arriving.
    Finally, I love how you have arranged the indoor daffodils in the glassware, all surrounded by those pretty furry catkins. Cheers to you my friend :D)

  33. JOY for you ear Riitta!
    How you must welcome Spring and the first flowers that appear after pushing their little heads through the snow!
    The Tête à Tête daffodils are so sweet - I'm going to plant some now for my Spring display in September (in the Southern Hemisphere).
    I also want to plant the Hoop Petticoat miniature daffodils too!

    I don't think I could read that book - I detest violence.
    There are so many worthwhile beautiful books to read.
    Enjoy your Spring Days Riitta.
