Cheer for P

[ROman]

@Madame:

@ROman I remember you saying when you visited a few weeks ago that you lost most of your rose bushes to blight this year, so sad.  But those are very beautiful, you clearly have a good florist in town.

Thanks @Madame Buttonfly The beauty of them is they lasted 10 days.

Day 2 of the Rose.

Third rose. I think the earliest they ever bloomed. Besides the beautiful red color, they are extremely fragrant.

In UK, we call those beetles May Bugs.

I love how they come in like a cumbersome helicopter…..

"Maikäfer" in german which is exactly the same as May Bug… they are quite seldom now and seeing one reminds me always of my childhood when we usally saw a lot of them... forest owner are a bit afraid if they come in huge swarms as they can be pretty voracious

At our last house we lived downhill from a large forest, these things would come into our garden on an early summers evening like this:
