Everyone has a favorite corner
Our six hundred square meters have a garden and, of course, a vegetable garden that feeds us all year round.
Every gardener knows that if you grow potatoes on a plot, then it cannot be compared with a store one: a completely different look and taste. The same can be said about cucumbers and pumpkins and zucchini. We also grow tomatoes, carrots, beets, cabbage and medicinal plants in our beds and in the greenhouse.
But the greatest joy is brought by our garden, where flowers take a significant place. Last summer, perennial crops, of which there are many in our garden, were very pleased with their exuberant flowering. To some extent, they brightened up the shortage of annual flowers, which were mercilessly destroyed by frequent rains, especially those that were sown in the ground.
But the garden all the same from early spring to autumn delighted with its bright flowering and aromas. At first, tulips blossomed, white bush tulips were especially good, by the way, their bulbs were received among prizes for participation in previous contests of the "Flora Price" magazine.
Gardener's guide
Plant nurseries Stores of goods for summer cottages Landscape design studios
Then daffodils, forget-me-nots, poultry farms, alpine poppies, irises, pansies and many other plants bloomed. Everything has its time, and each flower bloomed and faded in order, then another opened. And I tried not to miss this moment and captured it on film.
And we have a lot of favorite corners in the country. They each have their own.
For example, I like to sit by the window in the evening and take a break from day work, watch the sunset, inhaling the aromas of phlox, mattiola, marigolds.
Musya and Barsik - our two cats - love to lie back on the porch and listen to the buzzing of bumblebees and wild wasps, which have managed to make themselves a nest above sweet peas in the wall of the house. And Jack the dog loves to lie down by the porch and breathe marigolds and honey, especially if the cats have gone for a walk and no one bothers him to bask in the sun.
This is how we live all summer in the country, cultivating a garden and a vegetable garden, enjoying the fruits of our labor and resting our souls in our beautiful garden, where everyone has a favorite corner.
