LUCKY HOUSE: Houses with Trees are lucky Houses

I do believe in the positive influence and vibrancy of trees. Therefore it is essential to plant some near your home. Not only do they provide shade and oxygen they also can be the habitat for birds and other critters which are nice to observe and which make a garden finally come alive.

Not to talk about the beauty they offer each spring - this is absolutely priceless:

LUCKY HOUSE: another Wisteria House...

You already know my fanatic enthusiasm for Wisteria. But this house really knocks me out of my socks. Sorry - no interiors again but the exteriors.

This seems to be an old house in a residential area in Munich - near where I live - that is surrounded by rather newer homes. I don't know anything about this house - the fact is that you can hardly see it. Even in winter it is covered somehow by some evergreens - I think it's ivy - and it is enclosed with a high fence of shrubs which are that thick that you cannot even peek through them. Very mysterious - don't you think?

As you can see during the Wisteria blooming season the whole house disappears beneath a lump of blossoms and the front is totally hidden beneath a sea of green leaves. A wonderful place. Unfortunately you cannot even get a glimpse of the garden and what is growing there. So there is nothing left for me to do than staying outside, stretch myself as high as possible and shoot blind with the camera...




As you can see in the last photo the wisteria covers half of the roof already and you can see the top of the hedge which is really high - at least 2 meters! What a decoration!

What kind of people may live in there - I often wonder. They must be nice people with blossoms like these - such blossoms do not grow in gardens where you have nasty people - don't you think? So I just call it another lucky house and it will not be the last one...

LUCKY HOUSE: dipped in lilac and violet

I know - I'm walking a fine line again because I leave the track of the interiors and walk straight away towards the exterior. And again I'll show art but not made by me but Mother Nature again. I simply could not resist to show you this wisteria which I think is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen growing in a garden and overgrowing the garage.

Now what does this tell you about the people living in that house? You could assume that they apparently rather walk than taking the car because you cannot pass the garage with a sea of blossoms such as this one. Very sympatico! Isn't it? I wished I had such a wisteria tree in front of my home. It was simply breathtaking and I hardly could make myself going away again. What a lucky house and what lucky people!

Btw - more blooms and blossoms can be found here.
