long beans - a new try

I only planted long beans once in my garden. Mainly as I know i would not be able to harvest the beans.

However i could not resist and finally i give a try. I'm not sure if the monkeys will spare some for me but hope they consider me!

Little long beans learning to climb trellis. There are 3 seedlings in a row. Sharing the area with indian broad beans, lemongrass and pak choi. 

GBBD - Oct 2015

I caught some thieves in action! But they are welcomed in my garden!

The bees are busy collecting nectar from the flowers early in the morning.

Butterfly peas flowers are everywhere! They are at the front yard with ginger plant

 Hibiscus flowers after a trimming section!

I have trim down most of the plants in the garden. Especially flowering plants like Hibiscus, cape honeysuckle and Duranta.

Flowers are showing a show now! I need to stop my busy life to smell them! Bees are ahead of me to smell them though...

This is for GBBD Oct 2015. What's flowering in your garden now? I'm adding this post to GBBD hosted by May Dream Flowers at may dream flower

belimbing

This is the first year that belimbing or starfruit tree has produce mass fruits. 

There are many fruits hanging on the tree. I try to pluck some to ripe it in door. The taste was not sweet. Their size are not as big as the store bought fruit.

The size is small but many fruits are available for harvesting!

This fruit is full of vitamin C .

papaya

I have 2 papaya trees in the garden. One turn out to be male papaya tree. It does not produce fruits. Only white flowers on elongated stem. There was another tree just closer to this tree. It was growing slowly as monkeys have eaten the young shot few times. 

I keep the male tree. Luckily the second tree turn out to be fruiting tree!  Currently it's producing some flowers. Hope it will produce few fruits!
