I was in our garden yesterday shifting a large load of wood delivered to keep our home nice and warm in the middle of winter. As I walked past various flower beds I was amazed by the large range of plants in full bloom. This is strange for mid-winter where we have short daylight hours (about 10 hours at our latitude) and many frosty nights (with temperatures sometimes as low as -5 C). Also don't forget that our house is c. 1,000 m (3,281 feet) above sea-level. Here are the pictures I took of our flowers:
Nice, eh?
