Gardening Full Time
After my retirement last Autumn, I am finally gardening full time. As usual, I’m too ambitious for my own good. I sown more seed than previous years and I’m expanding and reconfiguring several flower beds.
Ambisjonene for hagen overgår nok mine evner. Men, drømmer holder meg i gang. Først og fremst ønsker jeg å bo i vakre omgivelser. Jeg kvier meg for å snakke om ideene til folk som sier «er ikke det nok», men har funnet nettsiden vår er kanskje du også interessert i hagearbeid.

This year I’ve grown sunflowers for the first time. They are magnificent flowers and I hope to be able to harvest seeds from them too.
The garden borders at Bliderud are under development. Some are created from scratch, while others are redesigned. But then again, I assume garden borders never are completely finished.
The long flower border is a combination of small trees, shrubs and perennials. For variation a few annuals are placed here and there every year.
Despite the cold weather, the plants are ready for a new season. Tulips, daffodils and fruit trees are competing for our attention and we’re looking forward to a new season in the garden.
It is the end of March 2022 and our garden is in the early awakening stages. This is the first in a series of garden tours which will show the changing seasons and development in our garden.
January is nearing the end and my first seeds have already germinated. Last year was miserable in that respect. Due to the pandemic, Frank and I were stuck
