Morgenstund hat Gold im Mund


Aamuhetki kullan kallis. / Aikainen lintu madon nappaa.

Auf deutsch lauten diese Sprichworte:
Morgenstund hat Gold im Mund & Der frühe Vögel fängt den Wurm.
Diese stolze Mami und ihre vier Welpen sind bereit für den neuen Tag.

In English: The morning has gold in its mouth &  The early bird catches the worm.
This proud mum and her four puppies are ready for the new day.

Roses, Roses ❤︎



The Norwegian rose Hurdal is in full bloom!
 ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎
It is an Alba hybrid, very vigorous & high, nearly 5 m. Almost thornless & mild fragrance.
It blooms once, in June.  Unfortunately it is situated so that the rose opens
its blooms to the neighbour :) I had two Hurdal roses, but the other suffered from
a cold winter and died. Last year’s photos are perhaps more beautiful - look HERE.






Other roses that are starting to bloom are among others Bourbon rose Louise Odier and
R. rugosas Rotes Meer, Schneekoppe and Zwerg.


My roses are not scarlet but I’ll share this beautiful Russian song
- Million Scarlet Roses by Alla Pugacheva from 1980s.

This is a painting of František Kupka.
See my post from spring HERE. The exhibition was fantastic!
