Foi em Inglaterra que aprendi a gostar de narcisos. Antes disso não me diziam nada — talvez até os achasse algo espalhafatosos. Mas vê-los despontar em massa depois de um longuíssimo Inverno, em contraste com o verde tão tenro dos prados e o cinzento tão carregado do céu, não deixa ninguém indiferente. O nosso jardim inglês tinha centenas de narcisos de diferentes variedades plantados na relva, não em canteiros. É assim que gosto deles, espontâneos e desarrumados. Aqui na Nova Zelândia temos alguns bolbos espalhados pelos canteiros, mas no próximo Outono faço tenções de plantá-los na relva. Sei que me farão sorrir sempre que olhar para eles.
I started loving narcissi when I was living in England. Until then I found them pretty indifferent — if anything, maybe a little garish. But seeing them emerge en masse after a very long winter, in contrast with the tender green meadows and the heavy grey skies, is a feast to the eyes. Our English garden had hundreds of daffodils and several different varieties and they were planted on the ground, not in garden beds. That's exactly how I like them best: spontaneous and a bit untidy. Here in NZ we've got a few bulbs in beds but next autumn I'd love to plant masses of them in my lawn. I know I'll smile every time I look at them.

They look amazing in all those separate little bottles and vases! What a great idea! :-)

Isso é puritanismo. Não há flores espalhafatosas!!!! Aliás, a forma como as colocou, cada uma em seu recipiente é bastante sóbria!! Desculpe o meu comentário, mas adoro flores. Jarras cheias de flores de diferentes variedades como se vê naqueles filmes de época!! É uma perdição! E depois não tenho, jardim nem varandas, tenho que as comprar e o preço às vezes é o equivalente a um vestido novo...ainda assim prefiro as flores!! beijinhos
ReplyDeleteNada como flores a desabrochar para nos fazerem sorrir e recordar :)
ReplyDeleteEsta semana já plantei bolbos de tulipas na relva... Beijinho.
Lindo! Gosto muito <3
ReplyDeleteSao realmente lindos!
ReplyDeleteYou have a real talent for making simple flowers look good. They are a national symbol in Wales, and still grow wild, although there are a lot of cultivars which have escaped now. I don't really like them in flower-beds either, apart from the miniature ones in mixed tubs and baskets. Your boys are looking wonderful, too. M xxx
ReplyDeleteA minha flor preferida, de sempre.
ReplyDeleteUm beijinho,
Luísa
Certas flores também gosto assim, como dissestes. Na relva, ficam rusticamente bonitas!
