There is this cool little place under the pines that grew on the stony coastal terrain near an inactive stone quarry, where you can see some plants unusual to that area.
Plants like this Yucca, that I encounter only in gardens, never in wild areas. I have a couple of them in front of my house, ad example, and they are relatively common around my hometown. But I never saw one like this, in the pine forest.
I saw also some Irises back then, in March 2021 when these photographs were taken. It was still too cold, the spring was near but not quite there, so the plants weren't in bloom.
I encountered also a nice white dog that day, a dog that I never saw before or since that occasion.
(Enlargeable)
That dog was kind of a mystery. It was somebody's dog, I guess, well-fed and clean like a fluffy doll. There was the collar and all that stuff, but I didn't see or hear any human around ...
... except for Denis, @denisdenis here on HIVE, that brought me there. I didn't discover the secret garden myself, he showed me the thing. And he knew the place ...
... because the garden was his creation.
Some years ago he was doing some changes to his backyard, or some friend's garden - I don't remember exactly, and he had to unearth some plants. Denis took that surplus vegetation and threw it here, under the pines.
That's the origin story of the secret garden, the main protagonist of this short real life vignette.
On the way back to the car, we saw some nylon high on the trees, and various garbage scattered around by the wind ... but that's another story. This one ends here.
As always in these posts on HIVE, the photographs are my work - THE END.

It's awesome how dog was guarding you guys, eventhough you saw him for the first time. I guess he enjoyed your company and presence.
Yes, it was a very friendly dog that acted as he knows us for years. He appeared and disappeared like a cute little ghost.
When I was a child, The Secret Garden was among my favorite books, and this brought back some of those lovely feelings ... thank you!
I'm gona check the book one of these days. Heard about it but never read it. :) Glad that this secret garden brought your thoughts to the garden from the book.
Enchanted Garden, I love connecting with places like this 💚
It's very impressive, you have a very happy day, I'm happy to see it.
