Edimentals is back on tour and today will be introducing the good citizens of Lom in the Norwegian mountains to perennial vegetables and edimentals around the world at Aukrust Gard og Urteri!
A series of shots from my hotel room overlooking the famous stave church in the town centre!

Pine flowering
The only pine tree in the garden, Scots or Norwegian Pine (Pinus sylvestris) is in full flower at the moment! I posted a couple of films of siskins feeding on the cones the other week.
This tree was probably not much taller than me when we moved here in 1984. 35 years on and it’s approaching the height of the mature birch trees nearby.
Pictures below of the small red female flowers at the tips of shoots and the more obvious clusters of male flowers which are laden with pollen. Good news for the siskins!
