Horticultural Thursday

Our Catio and the garden beyond may be small, but Äiti tries to do different things with it.  It is not great for growing veggies or flowers, but berries do okay. This year she grew a sunflower in a pot, and it was about 2m high. Here is the flower, before she had to move it due to the roof work (Äiti's note: what roof work ? No sign of those #¤?=**@ builders yet !)
On some of the birch branches we have interesting fungi.
But of course the main thing which interestsus is kissanminttu. Äiti is here taking the flowers to dry for next year's seed - supervised by Jura.

We love comments from our Loyal Readers, even though Äiti is really bad at commenting back. But please don't let that stop you......

Saa kirjoitta suomeksikin - Äiti on laiska, mutta on pakko oppia suomea.

Tervetuloa! Welcome!
