My 2 year anniversary of living in Switzerland is near approaching and this is only my second time visiting this park. Shame on me!! The last time i went was during my first Summer in Zurich and i rode through on my bike one day.
The reason i actually ventured here was because a friend of mine had been and highly recommended i go to see the Iris in bloom.
It was a really hot day…actually only 27 degrees……but for me that is hot. 5 years ago i would have thought that was cold (after living in Australia and then Singapore) but i have now definitely acclimatised to the Swiss weather, which is much much cooler, even in Summer. You may get the odd 30-35 degree day but its rare.
I spent about an hour there just photographing the flowers. It was so beautiful!! I wish i could have stayed longer but unfortunately all the seats in the shade were taken.
I’m planning on going back next week with a blanket, book, wine and cheese and showing my friend this park. She is new to Zurich and we met though German class…so I am showing her my favourite parts of Zurich.
I have many favourite spring flowers…but my top 3 would be Iris, Peony and Wisteria.
What is your favourite spring flower?
