WINTER HOLIDAY
Mid-February is not the best time to visit a Botanic Garden in Siberia. However, coming from England, for me it was a very interesting experience. Only once or twice during the 1960's have I ever seen deep snow in England; even that was only about 15-20cm deep and had melted away after two weeks. Also, I was able to buy some seeds of varieties of tomatoes developed for the short Siberian summer. I was told these are grown outdoors, but as Siberian summer is usually warmer that English, maybe I'll grow these in my greenhouse.

Ah! so this is what it looks like in summer ! A pity I'll not see it.
