Lime - ready for harvest

Lime is ready for harvest. Only 2 of them. If you have read about them, you know why there are only two of them....





The plant itself has been terrorized by caterpillars. Can you see their work!

Bid bye....

I have big area where Heliconia grow wildly. They have conquered the whole space and become like small jungle. It's very near to my car porch. A nice natural shaded place for many plants but unfortunately, It has become a favorite place for snakes. I saw long black colour snake in this "small jungle" last week. I nearly step onto the snake as i was not wearing my lens/ glasses.....Phew.....That's it....I have decided to remove the whole plant as it's so inviting place for cold blooded animals.....!



half way clearing up....

A sad ending for Heliconia in my Garden.....

White flowers!

We always overlook the beauty of vegetables flowers. In real they do have pretty flowers too! Water spinach is one of them. I always look at them in the point of view of how green and lush they are but today I'm posting about how beautiful are their white flowers!

Marigold!

I'm always searching for seeds and plants...more and more! Sometimes i feel my garden is a bit like nursery!

Many plants are from my fond memories of childhood! Marigold is one of it! In Malay language it's called "bunga tahi ayam" or direct translation to English is " chicken drop" . Does it look like one? I wonder why such a pretty flowers has a such terrible name....hahahahaa!



My Marigold that i planted from seeds has started flowering!!! It's almost my height!
