Went to the garden of C. Monet (French Painter) this Wednesday.
The garden is 1 hour by car just 100 km northwest of Paris

Unfortunately spring is 2 weeks late so there wasn't that much to see but nevertheless it was pleasant anyway.

Enjoy

Just gorgeous. I bet that hyacinth smells wonderful! We also had a late freeze and almost no rain, so there were virtually no Mountain Laurel or Bluebonnet blooms this year in San Antonio. :(

Wow!
Must be amazing to see it in person. Looks just like the paintings. I love that willow!

Things are just starting to bloom here - mostly forsythia and azaleas.
