It has become a tradition that I write a post not about today, but after some time. This does not change the basis of the post, but lags a little in time. Well, it is already the second day of autumn weather, autumn temperatures, and I return you to July, where the sun is in full swing, where every day was stuffy, dry and very sunny. Probably there were many requests and prayers from the residents of our country for more sun. So we got what we asked for. As if on command – from the first days of June. summer in Ontario, very hot days came.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The salvation from the heat and heat at the beginning of summer was an afternoon walk in the park. So Barbara and I decided to walk through our favorite park in Mississauga. Why our favorite? The largest Art Center in Mississauga is located there. Therefore, every time we look into the park, we invite ourselves to the gallery, to see what it has to offer, what activities there are and what’s new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And of course, take a look at my favorite house, which is located next to the art center. A wonderful place in all respects. I even chose it as a location for making a film a few years ago. It is very well-kept, brings its beauty and taste to the beautiful landscape of the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The color of the flowers and greenery of the trees combined with the architecture of the building and the small park around it. The care of the people who look after this place attracts many people here every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And in the evening it is especially pleasant to walk in the shade of tall trees, fragrant herbs and many-sided flowers. This is a fabulous place for romantics, lovers and just lovers of walks in the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And I will allow myself to express gratitude for this piece of paradise in the middle of Mississauga. Although I can\u2019t walk there and I\u2019m not a resident of Mississauga, I still enjoy walking in this park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the park they grow a lot of different types of flowers. They try to grow potatoes, tomatoes and cucumbers – we saw this in their experimental beds. In mid-July we went and saw what they had with the harvest. It was very interesting, because for me, as a gardener, the tomatoes were standing and slowly setting flowers. And the cucumbers in general decided to burn in the sun and get sick. No matter how I changed their places, they were exposed to the virus and the leaves dried up. And in the park at that time there were live, very large cucumber leaves and a lot of ovaries. Apparently, not only the place affects, but also the soil and the type of plant itself. Mine were bought ready-made in the store and this is my last purchase – it is better to grow from seeds than to spend money on seedlings heavily treated with growth hormones that cannot produce a harvest. In Ontario this is a problem, since we have a very short summer and we need to quickly grow and harvest. I do not envy our gardeners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s easier with flowers, because there is no harvest here and you can calmly enjoy the blooming of luxurious lilies, roses and gladioli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, the park has plenty of flower species and their color and brightness are amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t even know which types of flowers I prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Still, probably bushes, without flowering. I like them more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Even these wild yellow flowers look different in well-tended flower beds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a small house for bees, wasps and all sorts of insects, which can find there what they usually look for at the end of summer. Hide for the winter. This is collected to show to children who come here as little lovers of the park and nature. This year I have seen many of these summer camps with this focus. I am very glad that so much attention is paid to teaching children culture and caring for nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Walking among the trees, I look closely at the varieties of tree species growing here. For example, it is considered a favorite delicacy of birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a Christmas tree. But it is very well-groomed and that makes it look like a queen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And this is my favorite wooden cart, where I made a film. The cart has already completely collapsed, but as an element of decor, it fits very nicely into the architecture of the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Well, let’s walk through the colorful flower beds again and feel their aroma. It is especially prominent during hot weather and at the end of a hot day it can be especially felt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Echinacea is planted here too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Another lily bed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you think that it is boring and tedious here, it is not at all. In the summer, many concerts and events are held here in the art center building. Live music, meetings with artists and various exhibitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And I don’t want to leave the park at all, because this diversity of blooms gives harmony, calms, sets you up for an energetic rhythm and leaves a lot of memories for cold winter evenings. Publishing this memory, I wish for my friend a speedy recovery and look forward to new walks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
