We dont have any plant that grows higher than the eye level, not counting kakdah's hanging orchids, and what by the end of the year, the four papaya plants would eventually be. To see flowers is to look physically down, but flowers remain high in the aesthetic and emotional level. Kakdah will smile, temporarily getting out of whatever is negative and stressful in life, as she walk and lovingly hold the few flowers in the garden.
flowering plants in clusters, balsam (keembung) and zinnia
basil flowering
basil getting quite bushy
a young ubi badak by the fence
ubi badak, the shoots,
so tender looking.
ubi itik, another tuber, is a climber too.
I don't know if it will ever produce flower.
kiwi from seeds, first attempt.
at four leaves, they are growing steady.
For now, i will let the eventual kiwi fruits grow in my dream.
Hop over to Katarina to see more.
bangchik and kakdah,
Lovely! Glad that Kakdah has the flowers to make her smile. Walking among the plants creates peace. Enjoy, happy gardening!
ReplyDeleteThe Balsam and Zinnia are looking quite beautiful for Kakdah to enjoy...to bring her peace. Everything is growing so nicely in your little vegetable garden! So green so healthy!
ReplyDeleteLove the way things are growing. I enjoy stopping by to see how things have progressed!
ReplyDeletePandan looks good together with balsam and zinnia.
ReplyDeleteWhen Kakdah is smiling, who is more beautiful?
ReplyDeleteThe flower or Kakdah?

ReplyDeleteYea, she will smile over flowers, and i guess, flowers are created for bees, butterflies and WOMEN!

Balsam and zinnia are temporary and will soon dry out. I think she is planning where to put other flowers, so that blooming is continuous.

Thanks..., garden is coming out fine. Weather somehow is unpredictable now, very wet when it is supposed to be dry!

Pandan even on its own can be very ornamental.

That's a tough one. I have to check what yardstick should I use to measure "beauty"... aha.

Thanks for dropping by the other day. Taking gardening seriously is a prelude to taking other things seriously too. Gardening is all about formulating a green dream and seeing it through. Like most things in life.....
Cheers,

Hi Bangchik, Your first sentence is very funny. Rainfield is very funny too. Flowers are created for bees, butterflies and women? You mean to say that man do not appreciate flowers?

ReplyDeleteI dont know, it is just a hunch. Women need flowers more than men. A bouquet of flowers fits a lady, yet little bit out of place for a man. I do appreciate flowers, but in a manly way ... aha!

ReplyDeleteHope to see your Kiwi fruits!
