corner view - out your back door - stockholm





The two first pictures are from today. Rainy and cold. And also, the same view a couple weeks ago when the apple trees in our garden blossomed. Last, one of our rose bushes in full bloom. We have like 30 different sorts of roses in our small garden. It may sound romantic and beautiful and that was of course the plan but I never seem to find enough time to take care of them. They look overgrown and some of them untidy and not romantic at all. But they smell good.

Visit Spain Daily for corner views from all over the world.

to have such a garden in the city - how fab! and surely, it's even more romantic when the roses are left to themselves, right? :)

aimee said...

marvelous!! the wonderful scent is half the reason for growing roses - who cares if they're untidy?? :)

Jeannette said...

Untidy or not....they still look fantastic. And to have 30 kinds of lovely smelling roses...that´s a dream!

MODsquad said...

I love how full everything is! And green! Beautiful!

30 untidy rose bushes are better than no rose bushes! When I was a kid I spent so much time at my grandmother's home in her little rose garden. That appreciation has lasted all this time so that today during the summer almost every day I think "I should go check out the roses at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden or the local community garden". I am sure you appreciate your lovely
garden every day.
