Hey alp, thanks a lot!!! For the tulip!! Love it!!
Hellebores are beautiful.
I had that very same lettuce variety, the previous winter. I didn't eat, either....... But in spring, they bolted, grew tall like a mini pine tree.....they were really beautiful.


Btw, alp, am a 'he', not a 'she'

Larisa: Have you got any to upload here please? What is your country please? My eyesight is poor and the font is so small!

Wonderful flowers!
Now here is a little cold for the flowers in the garden. This helebores blooms (last year).

Well, not quite helebores. This is a test for resistance to other helebores.
He had a good two winters. So last year I planted a few more young plants with other flowers. I hope they will bloom too.
