Hostas and weather !

Gardeners do like talking about the weather !

It was the coldest Ascension Day (Hemelvaartsdag)

14th of May this year, since 2014 !

Then today, it was a warm 18 C in Diepenheim !

Highs of 25 C and above starting Friday and continuing

through out next week!

Hostas will be growing for sure

after all the rain the last few weeks !

Could this be the Hosta virus ?

Beter remove them with caution just to be sure.

Wow ! Looking great !

Weeding continues at Het Gazebo !

 

Rainy days in May !

Are much appriciated after April !

It was one of the top 3 driest April months on record !

Last week was just to rainy to enjoy getting out there.

Today there were a few " local showers" which 

were more like a local downpour ! 

Het Gazebo is filling and growing in nicely !

Hosta leaves are always best after the rain !

The last hostas have been planted !

This week has been rather cool for this time of year.

Hostas are the perfect plant for this climate !
