Leucaena leucocephala or petai belalang
So they say petai belalang are good as both nitrogen fixer and fodder plants. We have a number of seedlings ready to transform Seri Iskandar Home. Thanks to Tahir who had given away cuttings and seeds. We are planning to grow Leucaena leucocephala or petai belalang as hedge. I wonder how the hedge will look later. The soil in seri iskandar home isn't too rich, so Leucaena or petai belalang may be able to do nitrogen fixing. I am planning to regularly prune, and use leaves as mulch. Five seedlings are grown from seeds and 10 from cuttings.

Salam bangchik and kakdah. My name is kamal and I live in Gombak. I'm very interested in growing stevia plants at my home. Is there any way I can buy stevia plants or seeds near my district? Any help is appreciated :)
ReplyDeletelordcraze.... i used to have alot of stevia plants. Seri Kembangan home offers limited space for plants, so i reduce stevia to three little pots only. How many plants do you need?
DeleteAny amount will do. I juat cant wait to try growing them. Can you send me a gps location of the Seri Kembangan home affairs so that i can come?
Deletesalam kak dah,
ReplyDeletepucuk petai belalang sangat sedap dijadikan ulam...cicah sambal belacan...perghhh!!!
Takat ini cadangnya untuk jadikan pokok petai belalang sebagai tanaman hiasan. Di pangkas pendek paras pinggang..., sisa pangkasan jadi bahan kompos. Tapi pokok pun masih kecil, belum cecah sejengkal....
DeleteSalam Kak Dah,
ReplyDeleteKatanya petai belalang juga ada khasiat dari segi kesihatan. Mak Aji pernah jumpa petai ini yang dah siap kopek dijual di pasar di Sidoarjo, Surabaya. Mereka makan macam makan petai biasa.
Wassalam ummu Madihah..., sini pun ada yang buat sambal tumis dengan petai belalang.... tapi ramai lebih suka petai biasa yang lebih besar.
Deletenever heard of this plant.Anyway petai shall taste good! ;)
ReplyDeleteThis petai belalang can be seen almost everywhere in town area..., especially on abandoned compound, growing wild....
DeleteWorry over an Earth-wide temperature boost and a rising ocean level has incited some organizations to investigate approaches to counterbalance their carbon discharges. The expense of supporting a renewable vitality undertaking are restrictive for some organizations (over $5 per ton of carbon discharges).
