En tidig vårlängtan när kylan bitit sig fast i vårt avlånga svenska land. Ute skiner solen och det är -10 grader C. Rimfrosten ligger tät på alla vinterståndare och träd.
Köpte mig en tigerbegonia (Begonia boweri) i blom idag, tycker att blommorna är så söta. Kan en blomma vara enklare? Bladen är mer intrikata, med ögonfrans längs bladkanten och "tigerögon".
In English (translated by LS): An early longing for spring when the chill is getting a firm hold on our long Swedish country. Outside the sun is shining and it is minus -10 degrees C (about 15 degrees F ). The frost is covering all dead herbs and tree branches. I bought myself a flowering tiger begonia (Begonia boweri) today, I love their cute flowers. Can a flower be more simple? The leaves are more intricate, with 'eye lashes' along their edges and 'tiger eyes'.
