Secret garden

A week ago the weather was windstill and we cycled to the Public garden "Eksternest" (Magpie nest), I showed you before in July ((look here).

I hadn't expected to see any flowers in October but the roses were in full bloom.



And these bright pretty yellow ones were in full glory.

The nasturtium or Indian cress, I recognized from my childhood, my mother used to have a decorated  tin to keep the rusks in.

Like this one.

Watch the raindrops of the showers we had before.

Even the sedum on the roof of the gazebo was blooming.
In my post of July I called this garden an Oasis and it really is. We are always the only ones here when visiting which feels like a kind of "Secret Garden".

  1. I miss seeing roses. I think people are giving up trying to raise them.

    I've never heard of nasturtium being called Indian cress.
    Something new I've learned today!

    Happy Monday!

  11. Such a beautiful fall garden! I like the first photo. It looks so snug and cozy. I saw something similar in Hyde Park last fall, not as nice as this one though.
