We've enjoyed some beautifully sunny days with clear blue skies, but the overnight frosts have been very thick - but very pretty. These are photographs taken during the past week are of plants in my garden, early morning before the sun melted the frost. Frost so thick, it almost looks like snow Isn't he cute? This little squirrel was photographed in the rose garden in Saltwell Park, Gateshead - it helped that other visitors were encouraging their grandchildren to scatter peanuts to attract the family of squirrels.
Beautiful, frosty pics Mary! Wow, so you guys over in England have flowers and greenery already. You must have a shorter winter season then we do. March and April are probably our toughest months here in Maine because everyone else in the USA have daffodils, etc. and we're still bracing for the possible late spring snow storm.
Hi Mary! Yes the frost is bouth beautiful and can do big dammiage. We are glad that we live in the swedish hailands beacouse the plant has not comes so long here than they have on the cost. I have heard from my gardenfrends there that they have some problems now, bouth with the weather and whith wild animals who begin to eat everything the can get over. Ken
Hi Mary, I hope you are ok with the awful storms that have been around the last couple of days. Fingers crossed that you didn't get any damage from it!
We are heading over to the UK at Easter so could you order some nice weather for us please ;) J.xx
Pottering about in my small garden in the North East of England at the top of a hill, often in the wind and the rain, occasionally in the sunshine! Surrounded by high conifer hedge and mature trees on one side. Garden slopes upwards, so we made a dry stone wall on two levels at the back of the garden which we're still adding plants to as funds allow. I like evergreen shrubs and any type of flowers - I don't grow any veg and am obsessed with keeping my lawn edges 'neat'. I like walking where I can see ducks, wild flowers and interesting foliage

Hi Mary, even though the frost hurts the plants. It is prety.
