    Was perfect to watch with my morning cup of tea. The sounds of the birds singing, the flowers dancing in the wind and the cows grazing the fields fill my heart with so much gratitude, what a beautiful world we get to live in. I hope you had a wonderful birthday with your family🫶🏽

      Yes the man at the garden center told me there are a few different varieties and some can stand as low as minus 15 Celsius. I do see them at multiple places in the villages around me and I guess it really is all about the soil, the wind and where it sits.

      I think you mean the one right by the door? That is a fig tree that we've kept in the greenhouse during the winter and hope to plant somewhere. We had one by the swimming pool that really didn't like it there and never gave fruit. It unfortunately didn't survive the building works of the septic tank back in 2021, so we're trying again with this one!

      @@FrenchCountryLife j'ai longtemps gardé mon laurier rose en pot en terre cuite, sans le rentrer l'hiver mais en mettant un voile d'hivernage lors des températures basses (j'habite en région parisienne, essonne). A l'automne dernier je l'ai transplanté en pleine terre car je trouvais qu'il était étouffé dans le pot et l'hiver dernier qui n'a pourtant pas été très rude, je l'ai paillé avec de la paille de lin mais il n'a pas bien supporté cette transplantation, il est tout moche et n'a pas fleuri. Il va peut être s'adapter. En tout cas, en pot, je l'ai gardé plusieurs années. Normalement il faut les rentrer en hiver. Bonne continuation !
