Today at "Les Belles d'un Jour"

I took a few minutes at lunch to visit Michel, my neighbour, and catch a few shots of the blooming daylilies. It must be the peak of the season around here...





Some welcome shade...


A sea of flowers...

Beautiful peach roses

Shot at our neighbour's place...

Gladioli

These are close-ups of a gladioli bouquet.

Smell this!

Today was a glorious day!
With smells of lilac and lilies of the valley, a cloudless sky, gardening, cooking, reading a great book, enjoying life...
What more can you ask for?

A lovely afternoon at Montreal's Botanical Garden

Yesterday was a holiday here in Quebec, so I enjoyed a beautiful afternoon with my daughter at Montreal's Botanical Garden.
The orchids greenhouse was particularly interesting.
Here are some photos that I took:

Scilla siberica

Beautiful flowers, beautiful people...

This is about my neighbours, Lorraine and Michel, who have been cultivating Hemerocallis for over nine years now.
They have over 400 varieties of these. They offer a visit of their garden, which is beautiful, for a mere $4,00, and they also sell online.
They are very sweet people and dear friends of ours.
