For Mosaic Monday hosted by Mary from The little red House I made this mosaic of photo's I made today. We visited a beautiful garden in Rotterdam called "Schoonoord" that was open for hidden gardens day. In the next few days I will post more photo's of this garden.
For Blue Monday hosted by Sally from Smiling Sally I also made a mosaic but in blue and from various gardens.

Looks like a lovely place to visit; thanks for sharing your photos.
Very pretty... Love the purples and whites!
A simply beautiful garden, thank you for taking us on a tour through your mosaic.
A gorgeous garden. The Gunnera is huge.
Beautiful mosaic. What a wonderful garden!
A lovely garden. Thanks for sharing.
Oh how lovely, Riet! Don't you just love to visit private gardens that are only opened once or twice a year? :)
Such a beautiful place to visit, and I can almost smell wonderful scents of the flowers! Lovely mosaics!
Your pictures are so beautiful! The colours of the flowers are truly gorgeous. The lovely music in the background was perfect too!
Happy Monday and best wishes for a beautiful week,
Natasha, Stacey and Holly.

The garden looks so full of flowers and greenery! I like all the blue flowers thta you found!
Dear Riet, I am so glad I found you. Your link went off of my list. I have had that happen numerous times. I cannot remember the addies sometime so can't get them back until I run into them. I was showing your photos to my gd the other day and thinking about you. Love your mosaic. I spend half my days now waiting for the rain to stop so I can go take photographs. blessings

een heerlijke bluw monday riet,
puur genieten weer, hier, ik ben wel een erge fan van blauw, en vroeger was dat nóg ereger :-)
Morning Riet
Lovely mosaics. I love that these gardens are that are open on special days for the public to visit. Here in the UK we have the National Gardens Scheme, we have visited a few gardens already. The money going to charity.
Looking forward to see some more of your photographs from the garden.
Have a good week, Jackie in UK.
Jeetje Riet, jij ook al aan de reclame??
Mooie collages hb je gemaakt.
De planten in de tuin zijn nu zo mooi, niet? Alles groeit supersnel.
Fijne week,
groetjes van Thea
Wat een prachtige tuin en mijn blik ging naar de gunnera aan de waterkant, help hij wordt zo groot bij ons..
Beautifully coloured flowers and the very pale blue is the prettiest.
Beautiful mosaics!
Happy BM and MM!

Riet, those blue flowers are lovely! I have plumbago here in our yard, and I love it when it blooms.
Happy Blue Monday!
XO,

It is always nice to visit gardens. They have some of the prettiest flowers and things to enjoy. You did a super job putting all the pictures for both post in a great fashion.
What a lovely garden, so beautiful big green leaves :)
Music and flowers are charming. I love the Iris.

Riet wat heb je weer prachtige foto,s gemaakt.
Wat is de natuur toch geweldig.
Liefs Riet.xx
Beautiful garden, Riet. I enjoy visiting gardens like this too. Your mosaics are wonderful...Christine
Beautiful garden shots! Happy Blue Monday.
Hi Riet, I always enjoy your beautiful flower photos. These are so pretty. Of course, nothing makes me smile more than flowers. My mom loved them too. She always had live flowers in our home. She grew lots of zinnias in the summer to pick. This year I am trying to grow some too. I hope they are as pretty as my mom's. I just joined our local garden club and have really been enjoying the meetings. I learned I do NOT want to grow hybrid roses. They are way too much trouble. Smile. I am growing some knock out roses and even they have to be sprayed. They are disease resistant though. I am loving them. In Photoshop I will learn how to make a mosaic/collage.
It's about time. HA!
Happy days to you.
Hugs, Jeanne
Hiya cutie!

Private gardens are the best -- timing is everything

What lovely mosaics. That was certainly a nice way to spend your weekend - viewing a private garden. Lucky you.
So pretty, looks like a great place to visit.
Beautiful photos, Riet. Your garden is lovely! ~ Sarah
I love the idea of visiting a hidden garden - and your mosaic gives us a peek at the hidden pleasures. I love that gunnera!
