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

Many thanks for choosing me to be this weeks Guest Friend
 at TODAY'S FLOWER# 85 ( 21 of March)



March is the month that I sow all the seeds for my potager, my veranda is more like a nursery now and not at all the cosy place that we use to have our meals in. But I love my 'nursery' I love the smell of the warm moist soil and fragrance of the seedlings.



It is still a 'no dig' garden outside my window :-) an less you want to shovel some snow and that's why it is so great to escape into my photo albums or to read all the wonderful garden blogs. What would it be without you guys?

 My answer is utterly, utterly boring!



Auricula, this is a favourite in early spring, I usually grow them from seed but right now I'm waiting for a delivery of Auriculas from UK and I'm so eager to see how they look. I’ll keep you posted.





Spring is also the 'Tulip Time'

This spring I have been able to find tulips in wonderful pale colours I'll show you three of them here the first in pale pink and the other in pale mellow yellow. Both of them were very fragrant too. Last photo is of a fading beauty. I just love fading tulips, they are really fading with grace...hm I wish I were a tulip.




Fading beauty with light, fragile, silk-like petals.



Just as I'm now sitting here writing this post it is the Vernal Equinox
 Finally 12 hours of light per day.... Sing Hallelujah!
