今日の練馬区は最高気温が21℃だったようです。暖かいのは嬉しいけど嵐のような強風もすごかった。
冬の間 無煖房の２階部屋で過ごしたタヒチライムをベランダに出して、数か月ぶりの直射日光に当ててやりました。
The maximum temperature reached 21℃ in Nerima-ku today. Warm weather was such a welcome thing, but the spring gale was also strong.
I moved the potted Tahiti Lime tree out to the balcony, so that it could enjoy the direct sunlight after several months of indoor life.
A lot of flower buds have started to come out. While the tree was inside the room, I never turned on the heater. This seems to have worked in preventing cottony cushion scale this winter.

挿したときの画像は以下の２枚。こんなに簡単に育つとは、よほど生命力が強いのでしょう。
The following two photos are how the crown looked like, when I prepared the cutting. It grew fast probably thanks to its natural vitality.
昨日買ってきた苗はすぐに鉢植えにしておきました。ひと晩経って元気そうです。
The new herbs I bought yesterday were potted before evening. They seem to have settled well overnight.
原種デイジー: wild daisy
Not to waste today's warm and dry wind, I shampooed Taiga in the afternoon, and we went out for a natural dry. Going out for a walk at an unusually early hour, she should have been happy but for the shampoo. When I called her name, she would not look at me.
So, I walked ahead of her and talked to her, but she remained sullen.
