Spring is slowly showing its lovely face at Casa Debbio. We are 630 metres above sea level so it is a little behind Bagni di Lucca, but my weeping cherry is looking gorgeous.
There was a small fig tree in this position and I had it taken out to put the cherry in. There was a loud protest from Sisto, who was helping, but I stuck to my guns and am very happy I did so. This beautiful tree greets me as I come up the driveway.
The daffodils are almost finished, but the fruit trees have tiny buds and there is a tinge of green on some of the trees. I am hoping the lavender will start to grow soon…I’ll keep you posted.
My new terra cotta bench is in position.
The table is still wrapped up…I need more pairs of hands for that one.
We have some gorgeous new/old pots. They are waiting for geraniums to appear in the nurseries. I want some great big red ones.
The magnolia tree has big flowers, which will be finished soon. Fabulous growth is required from the tree this year to provide shade in front of the house.
We can see a huge improvement in our new garden this year…and it will only get better.
