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.
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.
All those plants indicated they must really be land lovers. ;-)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenZiet er huiselijk uit.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenVery pretty indeed. I am just wondering where the houseboaters go in winter - does your canal freeze over?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThey always stay in the water, even with ice, which has to removed from the sides to prevent damages.
VerwijderenWhew! You'd need a crew just to look out after all those plants. :-)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenOne of my fantasies is to live on a houseboat for a summer. I'd move into this one in a minute!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI would have a bunch of potted plants too.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt looks very pretty - I have been busy filling my hanging baskets this week.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLooks so pretty Marianne.. Wonder how cold it must be in winter with ice around the boat?

BeantwoordenVerwijderenQuite a way to live!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI saw many houseboats with lots of plants in Amsterdam and I thought those boats looked very pretty, just like the one in your photo!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIf you have a "green thumb" you can garden anywhere! Even on the canal.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI think it's delightful!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThey've done a good job of putting plants out.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDearest Marianne,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt looks lovely and very garden-like. Guess they accomplished that look to perfection.
Hugs and happy Sunday!
Mariette
