Senduduks are crazy with blooms

  3. Your favorite flower? Very beautiful, yes. Can you really have a favorite? I guess if I had to pick, I'd be pretty un-original and say a rose. lol.

  4. The senduduk is blooming all over now. You must have taken very good care of it! Or senduduk knows that Bangchik and Kakdah loves it. So senduduk is smiling brightly in you home.

  7. Hi B & K, I know this tropical bloom by the name of 'Princess Flower'. I had one that I trained into a standard,but, alas, did not survive ;( Your shrub is healthy and looks like she'll be blooming for a long time with all those buds!

    Thanks for the comments. It is not easy for anyone in Malaysia to accept this wild plant as having beautiful flowers. Because senduduk is too common, being among the first few plant to colonise lands just cleared.

    After a few rounds of flowerings, the plant is giving out lighter purplish flower, wider and more pronounced yellow stigma. Thats what I been noticing.... This flowering season is the best, because buds seem to come out from every ends. Even the little shoot at the base of the plant is happily producing flowers.

    To Lynn, you can give it another attempt!!
