Hosta & Het Gazebo weather !

It certainly feels like Autumn !

August weather sure was erratic !

Was it really 27 C last week ?

Today didn't even reach 17 C !

It was a chilly 15 C in the rain !

Thanks to the volunteers for keeping up their 

regular weeding Wednesday visits !

Hosta Wu La La 

Just when you thought one had kicked the Hosta addiction

this one shows up !

Thanks to Fahner

Groot blauw groen blad met een gele rand. 'Empress Wu' sport uit de USA en lijkt waarschijnlijk veel op onze 'Wunderbar'.Hosta Wu-La-La heeft blauwe bladeren met een gele rand en is een extra large Hosta met licht lila bloemen en groeit in halfschaduw en schaduw . De hoogte is 100 tot 120 cm en de groei is gemiddeld .

It's still great weather for planting hostas !

 

Autumn plans including Het Gazebo ?

It was 27 C in Diepenheim today !

There's no thoughts of autumn while weeding today ! 

Sunshine and enough daylight hours keep the weeds growing !

Het Gazebo looks great !

Natuur als sculptuur. Zo kun je het unieke Land-Art-project van de Belgische kunstenaar Urbain Mulkers (1945-2002) omschrijven. Aan de oever van de Regge, zijn in 1995 1.393 hostasoorten geplant, omzoomd door een dubbele rij van 136 rode beuken.

If you're in the area this Fall ,

Mid August !

No extreme weather to report this week ! 

Nice Summer weather hanging over Het Gazebo

and Diepenheim these days ! 

Hosta Flowers come in beautiful colours !

When you're in Diepenheim you must visit the cafe De Pol !

The baked goods created by the volunteers are so good !

Enjoy it with a great cup of coffee then walk over to Het Gazebo ! 

A few flowers have a sweet scent !

While others are used as a base for ants 

and theier symboitic realtionship with aphids 

Enjoy your Summer vacation !

It's been raining for days !

Last week was rained out ! 

You have probably heard about the

Extreme weather conditions throughout Europe and the world ! 

Today the sun was back ! It feels like Summer !

The volunteers enjoyed a dry day in Diepenheim ! 

But after rain comes the weeds as well as the 

slugs and snails showing up en masse!

There are still new flowers while others have gone to seed !

Gathered together under a hosta leaf for

 shade from the sun or protection from the rain ?

August at Het Gazebo !
