thank you Bonkers,
I have to ask for apology i'm not very present these last weeks, very busy moving my office, coundt even check the last pictures you all have posted.
Updating soon hopefully.

I wanted to take these pictures while the trees are full of flowers..
every corner i turn and see a gorgeous tree covered with flower remind me you all from GOY...

Thank you TT... people probably though i was going out of my mind crossing the streets and taking pictures ... lol
but this way is the best way to see flowers... right there where they grew up and bloomed

Yes, i like both rose and purple ones, but the purples have a special magic, and... nice meeting you Bernieh :)

thank you Marguerite, it's amazing how they have different hues, if they are exposed to much sun like these ones the purple is quite clear (light?) but the ones under the shadows on the parks are dark purple.

This looks so exotic. I would love to have something this cheerfull in my garden.

Your gardens in UK are very very beautiful, and your flowers are stunning.
I remember my grandma saying these:
" ... keep the flowers where they are...enjoy them in their own place... if you cut them they will die before their time, just because you wanted to have them to yourself.."
I guess it applies to our different flowers and plants, certainly we would love to raise some of the exotic plants in our gardens... my wish would be tulips everywhere in my balcony... and you certainly would love some of our flowers and trees :)
This makes GOY more and more enjoyable, because we can share our nature gifts with each others :o)
