The summer came on Friday - only two days make a miracle.
Everything is growing so fast, the birches have leaves, the maples are in bloom...
If this is not happiness, what is?

Yellow is not my favourite color, don't know why I have so many yellow tulips!

Collage for Mosaic Monday
I have spent hours in the garden just enjoying the wonderful weather!
Watching a bit ATP tennis from Rome where Andy Murray played
so poorly and was defeated by Fabio Fognini!
In the final Novac Djokovic was not at his best either
and was defeated by the amazing & young Alexander Zverev from Germany!
This book La carne - Flesh by Rosa Montero was good summer reading,
so far available only in Spanish & Italian.
Wishing you too happy moments in the garden!
Lovely. I like spring so much ♥
VastaaPoistaDear Riitta,
VastaaPoistabeautiful !! I've fallen in love with your Little frog... Don´t worry about the yellow tulips. This color brings the sun in the garden.
Warm regards
Renee

PoistaThere is nothing like the lush green of new growth. So alive and so promising.
VastaaPoistaLiebe Riitta,
VastaaPoistaherrlich wie alles am wachsen ist. Auch werden bald deine Pfingstrosen blühen. Die Knospen sind schon zu sehen.
Dein Blumenstrauß ein Traum.
Viele liebe Grüße

VastaaPoistaDear Riitta,
VastaaPoistathe pictures are amazing, but your little frog is the best frog I have ever seen, how he is singing his welcome to the spring, very lovely.
I like tulips in all colors and this bright yellow is like small suns all around.
Many greetings
Wolfgang

Vielen Dank Pia!
PoistaNo wonder your little frog is so happy he's living in a beautiful place. I don't seem to be able to see your mosaic, could be the page needs refreshing?
VastaaPoistaAnyway, Happy MM!
Thank you Maggie - I had forgotten the mosaic :) Happy MM!
PoistaLovely! It does seem like the seasons change overnight and the plants begin to "sing"! A delight to the eyes. I bet your frog is very happy. Love the yellow tulips -- yellow is a happy color. I'm glad they appeared in your garden. Happy Monday!
VastaaPoistaTu también que seas muy feliz. Besos.
VastaaPoistaLovely lovely, happy reading and have a good Mosaic Monday
VastaaPoistamuch love...
When summer comes all in a rush and fills our eyes with green and pretty things, our spirits lift in response. I'm so glad the warmth of the sun has returned. Enjoy each moment!
VastaaPoistaThank you Ritta for sharing your wonderful photos of your garden. The black and white tulip flower head is stunning.

Happy Spring ...almost summer weather! It is happiness for sure. Yellow flowers are my favorite ... (But the beautiful tulips would die from the heat here in Florida, so I know they are happier where they are). Thank you for sharing them !
VastaaPoistaVery beautiful and colourful flowers.
VastaaPoistaI adore your "modest" terrace bouquet. It is very beautifully constructed. An inspiration to us all.
