On March 17, I could make some lovely photos from our fragrant heirloom 1916 Thalia Orchid Narcissus, accompanied by our Spooky-boy.
They really look like Orchids these Thalia Narcissus!
Not that many flowers this year but still beautiful with the blue Ipheion in the front.
Our Spooky-boy joining me and posing in front of my camera...
Beautiful blue stars; Ipheion is a lovely spring flower bulb.
Our felines live in paradise!
Spooky-boy is a dreamer...

ReplyDeleteDearest Theresa,
DeleteThank you and yes, our pets live a privileged life and it would be a dream come true if more pets could find such a loving home!
Hugs,
Mariette
Oh that regal looking Spooky boy for sure in living in paradise! We always thought that of our beloved Pug Ben too...so spoiled and he thought everything was his too, lol!
ReplyDeleteYour Narcissus blooms are gorgeous and with the touches of blue of the Ipheon it simply is lovely dearest Mariette.
I hope is well with you and 'everyone else.'
Hugs,
FABBY
Dearest Fabby,
DeleteYes, Spooky-boy is really in paradise, all of our felines are so happy in our garden and wood garden. Sure, our pets are the 'rulers' and they claim their home more than we do but that's why we love them so much!
Yes, both of us are very well and happy; enjoying this beautiful season of spring.
Hugs to you,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette； Wow, GORGEOUS bloom of white Thalia Orchid Narcissus (love the middle name, haha) and blue Ipheion♡♡♡ Really Colorful Coordination, aren't they♪
ReplyDeleteYour Spooky-boy looks SO brave, handsome and dreamy in front of the paradise☆☆☆ I LOVE the blurry back of the pictures which makes him stands out(^_^)ｖ
Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
Dearest Miyako,
DeleteHaha, that's a Narcissus meant to be for you! Can you imagine this is an heirloom that's now 99 years old? Beautiful and oh so fragrant too. Not too many blooms this year but at least some to enjoy.
Spooky-boy followed me all through the garden when I made many photos and I had to capture him with the blue Ipheion flowers.
Hugs to you dear friend, all the way back from Georgia/USA.
Mariette

Liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeletedas ist eine Pracht.
Sonnige Grüße
Elisabeth
Liebe Elisabeth,
DeleteDanke und so teile ich es wenigstens mit vielen von euch!
Liebe und sonnige Grüsse zurück.

Witte narcissen zie je niet zo vaak en de zwarte kat past er goed bij. De katten hebben inderdaad een paradijselijke omgeving met dat bos.
ReplyDeleteBeste Marianne,
DeleteJa inderdaad zijn ze zeldzaam in puur wit maar dit 99 jaar oude heirloom soort Thalia vinden we zó mooi. Veel loof dit jaar maar weinig bloemen en we weten niet waarom?! Toch nog wat om van te genieten en de poezen zijn in de zevende hemel. Die spelen graag verstoppertje tussen het loof van de narcissen.
Liefs,
Mariette
Your narcissus blooms are beautiful! With blue Ipheion around them, your yard really looks like a paradise :-) Spooky-boy is such a handsome kitty. His coat is so shiny and gorgeous! Looks like he is enjoying a lovely day in the paradise :-) Have a wonderful day, Mariette!
ReplyDeleteDearest Tamago,
DeleteThank you and I'm so glad to share them. All those blossoms do last but a good week or so and they're gone... but we enjoy this show case each spring. Happy time when all of us can go outdoors again. Spooky-boy is a very shiny and silky cat and his brother Bandido even more so. They enjoy their paradise and we love it when they're happy.
Enjoy the remainder of the week; almost weekend now.
Hugs,
Mariette
Hi dear Marietta !! Que lindas flores y bello gatito ! Que tengas un óptimo viernes !!
ReplyDeleteCariños
Dearest Angélica,
DeleteThank you and yes such pure white heirloom narcissus bring us joy each spring.
Enjoy your Friday as well and happy upcoming weekend.
Hugs,
Mariette
Spooky-boy is so black and shiny. Your flowers are lovely. Everything here is just covered in dust. And it's gotten extra hot all of a sudden. Our growing season is definitely coming to and end. Have a good Thursday. Tammy
ReplyDeleteDearest Tammy,
DeleteSpooky-boy is an exotic beauty, guess he's oriental with very long legs and rather slender build. We enjoyed these lovely spring flowers just before the pollen did set in, a nasty time but in the coming days I get we get rain and it will wash it all away. Sadly that your growing season is so short lived but that's the negative aspect from living in a desert.
Sending you hugs and wishing for a happy Friday!
Mariette

Dear Mariette,
ReplyDeleteYour Narcissus is just beautiful and they really do look like orchids! So pretty with the tiny blue flowers. Your Spooky Boy is perfectly named and doesn't he look handsome lying in front of the garden! My son has a cat almost identical, named 'Lucky'. Hope you have a lovely weekend!
Hugs xo
Karen
Dearest Karen,
DeleteOh, this is after all the most beautiful time for the garden. Each day something new blooms and our cats are so happy being outside. Your son's cat's name is very appropriate as Lucky they are for being adopted by a caring human!
Hugs and a happy and sunny weekend to you.
Mariette
Prachtig bloementapijt in je tuin. De narcissen zijn zo mooi helder wit van kleur.
ReplyDeleteSpooky Boy is een prachtig model.
Fijn weekend, lieve groet
Beste Willy,
DeleteDank je wel, het is gewoon een prachtig blauw tapijt met alle Ipheions in bloei. De helderwitte orchidee narcissen steken er zo mooi tegen af. Ja, Spooky is ook een hele mooi poes, heel lange benen en mooi sierlijk. Maar om dat allemaal te kunnen fotograferen valt niet mee bij poezen!
Liefs en ook een fijn en zonnig weekend.
Mariette
Himmlisch, diese weißen Narzissen! Diese blühen bei uns leider noch nicht, nur die gelblicheren.
ReplyDeleteLiebe Grüße auch hier
Sara
Liebe Sara,
DeleteJa, wirklich himmlisch sieht es aus, nur eine gute Woche ist es so aber wir können es geniessen.
Ganz liebe Grüsse mit viel Sonne,

Wishing you a very Happy Easter in Greece!
Hugs and blessings,
Mariette
Bonsoir Mariette
ReplyDeleteToutes vêtues de blancs tes narcisses ressemblent à des anges.
Ma minette est pareil mais beaucoup plus angora.
Bises et bon WE
Bisesss
Dearest Nathalie,
DeleteThank you and indeed they do resemble angel wings.
We did have one male cat who was half angora (Persian) but now we only have short hair.
Hugs and happy weekend to you with sunshine!
Mariette
