Hidden... and waiting - Piilossa

Hello! I want to start this post by thanking you all for your lovely comments. You make this blog so much more interesting. Recently, it has been delightful to read your ice skating memories. 

Now to the MakroTex challenge! This week's prompt is hidden and I chose the topic nearest to the heart of every gardener in the autumn: the bulbs.

I grow most of my tulips in the ground, but every autumn I pot up some bulbs and store them in a cool space. Last year I tried 'Mount Tacoma' (in the photo above); they are really pretty but I didn't like their "fragrance".  I replanted the bulbs in the garden and this year our potted tulip will be the enchanting 'Sweet Desire'.

The bulbs, now hidden under the soil, go to sleep and will dream of spring (this is not a science blog)...

... when they will wake up and look like this:

Have a beautiful day! 

Tässä postauksessa ollaan siis piilossa.

Kiitos jo etukäteen kommenteistanne ja ihania loppusyksyn päiviä!

The passed week in photos

Good morning and happy October to all! I added my month collage to this post, because there are other photos taken on the last days of September. Visiting Susanna's blog Pieni Lintu, you can see the collages others have shared.

We have been able to enjoy beautiful autumn days  -  Unusual-looking lingonberry leaves  -  Bright colours  -  More lichens and mosses  -  Soft colours  -  Dreaming of spring  -  Fewer colours than the envelope promised, but pansies are always so very cute

Happy Mosaic Monday to all!

A small note to Google Chrome users. As of the September 1st release of Google Chrome, the browser will now automatically pause Flash media by default. They have taken this initiative to reduce power consumption by personal computers and to shore up any potential security exploits that may exist with Flash. It means that instead of seeing the cute fruit clocks in my sidebar you now notice a 'play' button that appears on top of them.

ClockLink encourages users to switch to HTML5 clocks to avoid this issue. I however want to continue using precisely these clocks. If you are a Chrome user, you can do this: 1. Open Preferences  -  2. Under Privacy click the Content Settings button  -  3. Under Plugins change the option to 'Run all plugin content' - but I wouldn't really recommend it. Sorry for any inconvenience!

Have a lovely new week!
