The new fertilizer A-B.

Have you heard about this fertilizer called A-B?
My hubby bought from his friend and ever since that we are using this fertilizer for our plants.
Its an amazing plant booster..
Look at my roses..

Suddenly everything is blooming for me.





Even my hubby who is not interested in gardening has shown some interest on the garden now.
Who would have thought that I can have egg plants like these??


The lady fingers  never stop producing the fruit.

Chillies.

Capsicum is easy to grow.
And my belimbing buluh finally gave me fruits..

I felt like I have discovered the secrets of those plant nurseries.He he
And I felt like I can plant anything.
I am a happy gardener now..

The glories of morning glory

I love creeping plants and love morning glory.
Previously I had one but when I started getting busy moving to KL and ignoring the plant, it died.

My sister knew that I was searching for the flower to plant again so when she found one in a nursery besides the highway she bought for me.

I planted it near the wall where the long bean used to be.


I hope I can find the red coloured morning glory by the name of Scarlet O'hara but its quite hard to find morning glories whatever the colour is!



  Its such a joy  to see morning glory blooming when I go to my garden every morning
I hope they are happy here in their new home.

Thought I share with you a poetry mentioning morning glory(tho I dont think it refers to the flower) but I still like this one.Its by CHRIS GREEN from the website helloppoetry.


                                             Arise my morning glory
                                               the coffees on to brew
                                             A brand new day is waiting
                                               To welcome me and you.

Chinese Lantern Flower

I was searching for a climbing plant in the nursery and saw this bright red flowers and couldnt help myself but took home with me.
It is called Chinese Lantern flower.
I planted it in a pot behind the kitchen and hoping that it will fill up the wall grill.





I love looking at it especially when the sun shines on them and seeing the shadows and reflections of the leaves and flowers.





But it didnt last long.The flower colours fade away and the leaves became yellowish.

I suspected it was because they didnt get enough sunlight there and also the pot was not big enough for it to grow fatter.
So I transfered it to the front where my bunga telang used to be.(Yeah the bunga telang was so out of controlled that I decided to pull it out).
I am hoping for it to give me bright red lanterns one day.


So far I only see these...

White Zinnia

I bought these seeds from Iris Seeds.

I just threw the seeds on the ground and one fine day a white zinnia bloomed.

Its very pretty

And I think it last longer than the usual Zinnia.
Or is it because I always look at it everyday?
I wish I have many of these but only one survived.

My sunflowers

The garden has more sunflowers recently.
They really brightened up the garden although they look spindly/raggedy.Dont know why they become like that.


But still... you are beautiful to me.

Something blue in the garden

Planted these blue flowers which I have yet to know the name in between my roses plant.
They seem to survive very well there.


Close up view of the small blue flowers.

I want to plant more of them here...
Just find out the name is BLUE HAZE FLOWER
