OPPSsss.... gone....

My third attempt on long beans is really worth it! I plant it in different vegetable patch and with little fertilizer. I grow them together in mint patch. I guess the mint have taken most of the fertilizer and become invasive!

There are many flowers and it's a promise of many long beans for me!

Opppsss..... where are my long beans? Monkey again.....

Pegaga?

I have bunch of this plant in my rectangular pot. It looks like Ulam Pegaga or Vallarai in Tamil. I'm not very sure. Do any gardener have any idea if this is edible?

Kalanchoe - the pinky

At the side of my house entrance, i have a small empty portion where i keep all the house plants and plants which love shade place! My garden receive full sun all day long! So some of the plant can't strive in hot sun.

One of the plant is this pretty pink beauty! Kalanchoe have brilliant colour small blooms which can last up to 2 months! This plant originated from Madagascar.

Kalanchoe require minimum water and bright filtered sun light to grow! They can be propagated through stem cutting or leaf! I shall try both the method once the flowers withered!

Bitter gourd flowers!

This is my 2nd attempt with bitter gourd. The first attempt was with 2 unhealthy seedlings which were eaten up by caterpillars!

The plant have started flowering but all are male flowers. I'm waiting patiently for the female flowers.... Due to my busy work schedule, my garden is not well taken care off. Monkeys are partying at the long beans vines and have pull and tear my corn ears! I have to get back to the garden soon!

Roselle drinks

Last weekend i harvested some Roselle from my garden. It's my first time to do the Roselle drinks. I remember the step by step photos blogged by bangchik few days ago! Bingo i prepared my very first drinks from my garden! It taste so good!

the seeds pods. It's drying outside now

I forgot to take the juice photos. When the pot got down from the stove, it looks so tempting that we add ice cubes to cool it down and drink!

Pak Choy

My first attempt with Pak Choy! Photos taken few weeks back after transplanted the seedlings. I shall take the new progress pictures this weekend!
