Hi @DieOmimi thank you for this very entertaining contest.

Dear Blossom, prepare your wings! I will take you to discover a place not very far from our European shores, but that will make you feel like you travelled thousands miles away from home! It's nestled in the French Normandy region, close to the sea port of Fécamp and a stonethrow away from pebbled beaches.

At first glance, the compound does not look very different from renovated farms around. But let me take you to visit the beautiful garden, well arranged and kept by a very dedicated gardener (and former sollicitor😁).

See all those flower beds ? Yes they are mostly composed with local wild flowers. In spring the forget-me-nots planted at the base of each apple trees, in full blossom, make you feel as if the above blue sky had landed right in the middle of the garden. Imagine butting amongst these sky like flower beds.

Behind the houses, you will find a good sized vegetable patch, fully organically grown, where the cooks come and chose their ingredients to prepare the next fully vegetarian meal. Not far from there, you would have fun visiting the vegetal Mandala designed by the Indian owners

Now after all this time spent in the garden, you might feel tired. So let me bring you through the doors of the central farmhouse.

As soon as you enter you are transpored in a different world, what with the scent of encens and burning ghee, the murmur of mantras played in the main rooms. You have just entered the heart of Tapovan Ayurvedic Centre. Right near the entrance you can have a rest on the swing in the beautiful meditation room.

I used to work there for weeklong periods, but every time I left I felt rejunevated, as if I had spent a long time in a far away country, far far from the hussle and bustle of our hectic western and urban lives.

This is paradise for bees: this Centre was set up some 40 years ago, and since then, all the gardens have been maintained without any chemical products. I can't wait to show you this place ☺️

Did you ever visit during Christmas?

That's really cool! I especially like the bonsai trees.

@rebelchild. That sounds nice.

I've been to Longwood gardens many many times. It's about 30 minutes away from me @Lotus_Flower

Thank you @xBlossomx . There is a new music video from Laszewo featuring Candy Crush - Too Sweet that you should look at. It Looks like the video is taking place in a Virtual Blossom Blast. 😀🌼🌺🌸

@200mimis very pretty scenery

I would take Blossom to the Botanischer Garten Berlin. Here, Blossom can show me the beauty of hope and regrowth…

Hi @DieOmimi

I would send Blossom to one of our many beaches on the Central Coast 🐝.

It’s like having a holiday every day of the year 😊

Hi @DieOmimi thank you very much for the new contest. I do try everyday to pass a level and more if possible.

I have deleted my photo of my dear bumblebees on my Cotoneaster, this picture is from one of our nurseries💜 I would love Blossom to take a holiday here 🤗😍

Bumblebee Garden

Our bumblebee garden is a special place in the nursery and shows how easy it can be to create a beautiful garden whilst providing the perfect habitats for the declining bumblebee population. Curated for grown ups and children, come and walk, sit, learn and take some inspiration home.

We’re all aware that bumblebees are vital to our ecosystem, and that recently there’s been a dangerous decline. We decided to use some of the extra space we have here at our nursery to plant a patchwork of different flowers that will encourage them to live. We love seeing them thriving on what we’ve planted, and the project has shown that domestic gardens are an easy place to create a home for bumblebees, no matter what the conditions are. We worked with the Bumblebee Conservation Trust to put this plan into action, with generous help from the Hatcher Animal Welfare Trust. Come along to see the bees at work, and chat to the team, download and read our Bumblebee Leaflet and learn how you can create your own bumblebee-friendly garden.

"Bumblebees are amongst the most loved and familiar of insects. But sadly these charismatic creatures are struggling to survive and the loss of habit has been a primary reason for this. The ‘bee friendly’ garden, The Field of Dreams, at the Duchy of Cornwall Nursery will be an inspiration to anyone that visits it, demonstrating that a few well-chosen bee friendly plants in their gardens, can and will make a difference to the survival of these vital insects".

Gill Perkins, Chief Executive of the Bumblebee Conservation Trust

When I was growing up, my parents would take us to Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, just outside of Philadelphia, PA, USA.

We primarily went because my mom loved flowers and gardens, and eventually I did too. Just like you Blossom!

I think you would love to explore the gardens, Blossom, because it's so beautiful there! There are conservatories,

and gardens galore!

There is a pond with waterlilies that are 4 feet across!

We always enjoyed those outings. I'm sure you would love it there, Blossom! You could talk to the gardeners and get tips from them for your own gardens! What could be better than that?

@DieOmimi What a fun easy contest. I can't wait to see where everyone like to go to relax.

Blossom I would send you to the Outer Banks in North Carolina. Step back in time and enjoy one of the original Outer Banks cottages built in the 1800's.

The cottages are a bit rustic with few updates. Relax the way people did it almost 200 years ago. Just the sun and the beach. My all time favorite cottage is the Outlaw Cottage

But there are many other cottages such as the Nixon Cottage

Or the Buchanan Cottage

The McMullen-Scott house is a little newer, but still about 100 years old

Another favorite old house in cottage row is the Fred Wood Cottage
