Houseplants in Delft White Pots in Our Veranda

 As mentioned before, we loved keeping house plants.
This is in our Veranda, where we live now.

Not always easy due to our International Consulting.
In the background you can hear the Dutch World Radio (it got being 'silenced' in 2013... see link from previous post below.
When viewed on YouTube you find English information written below.
This was in the Veranda of our previous home...
Our present home's veranda.
Still have my Delft White Pots!
Those hand crocheted curtains died.

    What gorgeous plants, Mariette! I've never been good at tending to indoor plants, so I admire your skills.
    Blessings!

      Dearest Martha Jane,
      Yes they sure were gorgeous and we loved them.
      But the high price we paid for being away for consulting was that most perished... remember the top link below this post.

    A mí me gustán mucho las palntas. Las tengo en mis dos patios y en la terraza, pero no tengo ninguna en el interior.

    Las tuyas están preciosas y hacen una buena decoración

    Besos

      Querida Antónia,
      Tienes mucha suerte de vivir en una región donde las plantas de patio prosperan y son felices. Tenemos algo durante todo el año en nuestros patios.
      Abrazos,
      Mariette

      Dearest Helen,
      Indeed, this was the lovely room we 'had' as most plants perished while we were doing consulting for 2 or 3 weeks at a time.
      The top link below post revealed that...

    Hello Mariette, There is something so elegant and clean about your white pots--I wonder that we don't see more of them. Also, the contrast with the green leaves is particularly effective.

      Dearest Jim,
      Thank you and that obviously also was why I found them so attractive.
      Delft started producing them when times were not so good, to make more people able to afford their products. Guess that over time the plastic ones pushed them off the market...
      Hugs,
      Mariette

      Dearest Debby,
      Well, wish I had the time for doing some real book reading or picking up fine crocheting work again. Our veranda is perfect for all that and for sharing a coffee or tea with friends.
      Hugs,
      Mariette

    Hello Mariette, Oh no, your hand crotched curtains died. I noticed those right away. Lovely and bright Veranda. Looks like some fine gardens beyond the Veranda. Hugs, Betsy

      Dearest Betsy,
      Yes, they did after 40 years of hanging at different homes in different countries...
      The view onto our garden from our veranda, always has been a nice one.
      Hugs,

    It's so beautiful. It conveys a lot of peace and I think it's lovely to be there on a rainy day reading a book.
