As I recover from the last push to finish the manuscript of Making Waves, I have begun to think about plants and spring more. Last weekend it was summer-like, literally, although the temperature dropped last week and it rained.All to the good actually, as it is always nice to have a few days when the spring flowers can show off before the heat destroys them. There are two daffodils in bloom in front, up the street the forsythia is almost out, and the grass is greening up.
But this week's picture is of a potted plant than one of our neighbor's gave us: a rose hydrangea that makes a lovely splash of colour inside. It didn't come with a species name, so I'm not sure if it will grow outside, but I'll try. The ones on São Miguel which are grown as hedges to mark the edge of fields are blue, but even more spectacular.
