Plants

The inhabitant of this houseboat in the center of Amsterdam, tries to create a feeling of a garden around and on the house with many plants and hanging baskets with flowers.

  2. Very pretty indeed. I am just wondering where the houseboaters go in winter - does your canal freeze over?

  7. My husband wants to stay on a houseboat too. I hear AirBnB has several on their site to lease on vacation. I think this person misses their garden. pretty.
