I agree with David, and asters in the pictures look so nice.
Here it snowed last night, and this morning everything was white. I hope that this snow will still melt before the real winter comes. I was hoping to take pictures of Colchicums in the snow, but they were all buried in the white stuff.

Thanks everyone.I agree
It is one of the most beautiful garden. My hubby took this picture.The picture shows only 1/5 of the garden.The remaining garden is also fabulous.
Here is a picture of part of my garden which is not as beautiful as my friends, taken yesterday. At the left corner one can see the asters at the end of their blooming.

I like to see snow in the garden, it is rare here. It is the only time my garden looks neat.

A lonesome flower of Erigeron uncialis v. conjugans in the alpine house.
This plant can be very floriferous (if the slugs don't find it) as the picture from 2008 shows.

Some actual pictures of our meadow garden for David Nichelsons request.
It was just a meadow when we bought it in 1975, situated between fields
and meadows, about 3 Kilometers from our home. Our children and their
friends enjoyed this place and we also had a nice time there. Now the trees
are in a mature stage and some of them had to be removed as we try to
make things easier.
We are glad, that our children and grandchildren help us to keep this
garden in a good shape.

A beautiful thing to have Rudi, your children and their children are very lucky. May it always be a thing of beauty.
