I'm also like ...

Lots of irises and lilies in my garden I have collected and planted by the roadside. Last year, one after the neighbor once about 100 thick daffodils and about 30 bearded iris (Florentina and Palladia) had just thrown on the road. Years before I had even found the Fulva and Flore pleno the wayside.


some news
I star first with a special kind of vole (Myodes glareolus). Which not only destroy daylilies, but also carriers of hantavirus. In Germany, the infections are clearly increasing. This is just dying.

I´m sorry, but ....

What beauty to wake up to ....except the beetle not looking forward to them in my garden.

Thanks, Hans!

As always, you post great photos.

Hans,...are these pictures all from your gardens or from where you work or travels in the area?

THX

Cinda, I like the (cetonia aurata) very much. There are only about 3-4 in my garden. Although he destroyed the flowers, but there are few. Much worse is a smaller relative, the Oxythyrea funesta. Currently I have no Iris sibirica, which is still intact. Yesterday I had for daylily destroyed flowers I had fertilized for hybridising. Every day I collect about 30 funesta Oxythyrea.

David Paul, yes there are this year all pictures from my garden. In addition to all the work there is also much to photograph. And I take pictures rather than to remove weeds.

An other bug I like is Cerambyx cerdo. It flies like an angel and is not shy. It is about 2 inches long.
