Tyra's Garden is a small garden on the island of Resarö situated in the inner part of the archipelago near the small town Vaxholm, outside Stockholm. Tyra's Garden is mostly an ornamental vegetable garden, my potager. But flowers are of course an important ingredience, for beauty and pollination. The climate in these parts is quite demanding as the northerly winds can be strong and cold. THIS BLOG 'Tyra's Garden' is not entirely a gardenblog it contains much more. About me: Enthusiastic amateur gardener and photographer from Vaxholm, Sweden. Designed and built my Greenhouse and Potager in Tyra's Garden 2003. Love the outdoor life, gardening and sailing especially. View my profile

Sex - Tulip style



Pistil and Stamens


I think this photo at the top actually is a quite sexy picture of the center of a Tulipa showing multiple connate carpels, a compound pistil, surrounded by stamens.

intimate...


less revealing...


fully 'dressed'...



Sunday, no wind and sunshine, a pale winter-sun but still it is sunshine! We are in the borderland between winter and spring and I have lots and lots of snow left and I bet we will have that until it's Midsummer but as long as the sun is out it is really wonderful. This is a perfect day for skiing, a long walk and perhaps a winter picnic.

Carpe Diem
