Garden affair : My spring Balcony

 Its spring time the exuberant freshness in air is enough to bring euphoric environment in my Garden. 

My balcony in these days is adorned with prolific spring blooms  and it is giving more warmth than my Hot cup  of coffee. 

I had always being avid gardener since from my early childhood as I was bestowed with large gardening space in my home . It was when my small balcony was renovated with  addition of green space I realized the emphasis of below mentioned quote 

                                                " You should enjoy being in your garden space,

                                                   regardless of its size. You should enjoy 

                                               looking at it so be practical not aspirational.  "

                                                                        

                                                                      

                                                                        

It is the time for link up party Garden Affair where we can share posts related with Gardening, Nature and birds. The link up party will be open for a week.

Garden Affair : Warm spring

 The warm start to spring this year has again raised concern about drastic consequences of Global warming. The high temperature above 85 f  in the start of spring is precarious predicament for the near future. 

                                                                     Dusk captured on the outskirt of city             

It has been stated to be record breaking  warmest February in the  last few years in our region, the action to mitigate the global warming can be taken as a laymen  by planting  more trees and making more artificial  ponds as much as possible so that we can make a small contribution to cool down the Earth .                                                                                                                                                                                           

                                                                                           

                                                                       

                                                                                                                          

At last we can rightly quote here as said by Environmentalist 

"If you want less degrees,

you must plant more tress."

It is the repercussion of early warming that blooms of   Bougainvillea and Desert Rose which are never seen   until March are  flourishing profusely in February itself.                                                                           

           

                                               

                                      

It is the time for link up party Garden Affair where we can share posts related to Gardening, Nature and birds. The link up party will be open for a week .

Spring is on its way

 It is alarming situation for our country  as mercury has touched almost 85 Fahrenheit in the first half of   the February itself in our region . The valuable concern raised by the Environmentalist regarding Global warming  seems to be foreboding now. 

There is a silver lining to the  start of warm spring which is the early blooming of spring blooms  

Nasturtium flower has been blooming from last week now 

                                                                        

                                                  

Nemesia blooms are coming out early with the onset of spring

                                                     Nemesia blooming prolifically after sudden rise in temperatures

Adenium blooming in February itself can very well explain the Global warming impact 

Plumeria blooms are rising with early rise in temperature                                                              

Bignonia venusta is a spring flowering vine also known as Flame vine when its blooms look like a flame                                                                                                                            

The warmer spring is a looming peril that explore the potential severe repercussions to the near generation.
