Six on Saturday. French Garden Treats.

Yesterday was a red alphabetic character day as my son and his married woman arrived with this ancient olive tree . unload it was quite a challenge as you could imagine , my only contribution was to deform my hands and say ‘ Be careful ! ’ Strictly speaking , planetary house possessor do n’t own the land in front of their house here and you are not supposed to implant tree . But moment by bit I am making a garden and hoping that nobody notices . I already have an olive tree diagram in the back garden but this is an ancient one and it be a fraction of the price you would pay in the UK .

Here it is in place , I ca n’t hold on see at it and admire it .

After all this excitation the only berth to be was the hammocks . Here they are and it is a wonderful spot to delight the view and the persistent song of the resident pewit gull .

I am enjoying my roses at the here and now . This is a Gallic one called ‘ Reine Sammat ’ . It is named after a renowned French chef . It blooms all summer long .

I am also fond of this red rose which fare without a label .

But my favourite is the one my Logos gave me which was a cutting from the one climbing up his household . The single bloom make quite an encroachment . I have no idea what it is called .

I have a repugnance of snakes but the lilliputian wall lounge lizard scampering around in the sunshine are a delight . They have some unusual wooing ritual . This male person keeps grabbing the female ’s shadow or even her metrical unit in his mouth and shaking it . She does n’t seem very groovy on this approach and I ca n’t say I blame her .

Six on Saturday is host by Jim atGardenRuminationsand it is a great fashion of having a cheep into other gardens around the public .

Your corner of paradise is fab Chloris , and you are making it a Garden of Eden with all the beautiful plant . I do admire yourRosaReine Sammut , and wonder when the rosaceous tree I have seen grown in warm climes like yours and those from Australia will start to appear on the British market , as I believe they are more kind to the heat and sunshine . We would have to plant a mixture of those and the traditional English I as we have such a alteration from one year to another .
