Weekend

This weekend we went to a local Garden Centre and bought some fertilizer for my lemon tree. I'm feeding it every other day and have scraped all the scale bugs off the under-side of the leaves. I discovered the insects the other day. They suck all the juice out of the tree - no wonder it wasn't giving lemons!! Under-fed and infested with these weird insects.

More pictures of the Garden Centre:Garden statues of "La Moreneta" a very special Saint here in Catalunya. She is one of the very few black Madonnas that exists. She was found in a cave on Montserrat Mountain (a magic mountain according to some people) and can be seen behind the altar in the monastery.
