GBBD - December

Monsoon season is here now. A long wet day and night. Clothes seems to take few days to dry! Nevertheless we have sunshine in between. I should be thankful for it! Some of the flowers are in full bloom but many drench by the downpour. So i'm left with few photos to take!

This Plumeria doesn't have smell! but it's so beautiful!

Ixora seems to enjoy rain i guess as they have ample of blooms!




For more flower blooming around the world please feel free to visit may dreams gardens

Pink beauty!

Here comes the pink beauty! Another Plumeria which i grow from the cutting given by p3chandan. It took me almost 8 months to be rewarded with this pink beauty! Many blooms have drop since i took this photo a bit late. The rain seems to be so unkind to the flowers.....



Look at the pretty flowers! They really have very strong smell! So good as a perfume! Plumeria do have smell after all! hahahhaa....

sun flower

I always save the sunflower seeds for future planting. Once you have sunflower in your house, you will have forever passion for them! They are just so vibrant in colour and cheerful!



This sunflower was from the seed which i throw as i assume it's not healthy. A single seeds germinated. The height was up to my shoulder. May be almost 5 feet , big stem and the sunflower was so huge! I have grown sunflower before. Took a good care of them but i never been rewarded with so huge flower like this! I spent most of my yesterday evening gazing at this huge bloom!  

so huge and beautiful!

Mint....unsuccessful attempt

I read somewhere that Mint is invasive. I have seen them being so invasive in my garden. There was time when i try hard to trim them down so that they don't take over the little curry leaf plant and Chillies. But now I'm trying hard to make them grow! ...sigh.....

Plumeria

Plumeria in my garden is so white....resemble purity but the flowers do not have smell at all! Is this usual? i grow up thinking that Plumeria have a strong smell especially at night but mine have none! May be I should try to smell it at night?! hahahha....

Own space for Avacado!


Finally Avocado tree gets it's own space to grow. Previously it was growing with Ornamental bushes which we planted as natural gate. However now we realise the bushes doesn't serve the purpose and taking a lot of space. So i have remove it! I think the Avocado tree look more cheerful now than before!

This Avocado was planted from seed. Unintentionally though as i always eat and throw all the waste at compose area that make some to germinate.

Avocado is very big tree is reality. I'm not sure if it can grow over here in small space but i shall take the wait and see method. Looking at the price tag at the fruit stalls or supermarkets make me smile to have a tree at home! 1 fruit cost RM5 !
