There is nothing else more beautiful than May in North Europe, when warm and wet weather finally arrives and all the plants sprout just in one night. Mother nature press a magic button, and all the greenery starts to change it`s garment into the eyes. It`s the time when I always keep something in my hands – or my hoe (weeds are also growing in a cosmic speed), or my photo camera, because after a hour or two some of delightful moments may already be gone.
I hope i won`t upset perennial plant lovers, but more than flowers in May i like conifers, growing their new shoots and replacing an “old fur”. All the conifers, even the simplest tree in the woods, dress much brighter and softer in spring. I love this time, when hedgehogs transform into wonderful puffy bears!
Please check some shots of my conifers. Click on a pic to make it bigger.

Thanks for sharing your garden observations! I’m glad we don’t all live the same things. Imagine how boring that would be.
I mean to type “love” not “live.”
clumsy fingers!
Yes, Lisa, I do agree! 🙂
