My camera is back! - Am din nou camera foto!

Da, am luat si camera foto din service! E noua si stralucitoare! Am si fotografii sa va arat! Asta seara pregatesc si un post interesant, sper eu, despre muscate.

Yes, I took my photo camera from service! It's brand new and shiny! I've got some photos to show you! Tonight I will write a post about Geraniums, interesting I am hoping.


O lopata de capsuni! Deja am scos aproximativ 3 kg. de capsuni din gradina. Mariuca a mancat capsuni, i-am facut shake, suc si salata de fructe.

O shovel full of strawberries! I already had about 3 kg. of strawberries from my garden. Mariuca eats strawberries, I made her shake, juice and fruit salad.

Tot eram eu trista ca s-a uscat cimbrul adus din Grecia. Am primit 5 plantute de cimbru, pe care le-am plantat fericita intr-o jardiniera. Acum astept sa creasca, dar le merge foarte bine.

I was sad that my savory from Greece died. I received 5 plants of savory and I was happy to plant them in a jardiniere. Now I am waiting to grow, but they are doing just fine.

Un tip de crin, nu stiu cum se cheama, cu frunze late, mari, verzi, deja a inflorit. Mai am unul la fel, numai ca frunzele sunt mov inchis. In spate, se vede trandafirul rosu, din pacate nu l-am prins in perioada de maxima inflorire, cand era plin de trandafiri si boboci.

Another type of lily, I don't know its name, large leaves, big, green, already with flowers. I had another one just the same, but the leaves are dark mauve. In the back you can see the red rose. Unfortunately I didn't had the camera when it was in the maximum blossoming, when it was full of flowers and buds.

Floarea crinului, rosie ca focul

Lily's flower, bright red

Trandafirul rosu, legat. Am pus 4 stalpi de gradina si am legat sarma speciala de ei, cate 3 randuri.

The red rose, bound together. I put 4 garden pillars and I tied some special wire, 3 rows.
