Garden Progresses

Acerola (Malpighia glabra) seedling is reacting a little strange in my garden. The plant seems to take its own sweet time to grow. While I like slow-growers, this one proves to test my patience. Never knew that it would grow so, so slow. The mother plant though (which I have been keeping as a bonsai) does grow faster than this seedling. Hmm... perhaps a little more fertiliser?

Little lemon tree is cute and pretty. Love watching it grow. After it has grown its true leaves, I can literally see it growing bigger each day. But hope it will not outgrown the little pot too fast. 

Due to the haze and hot weather, I resorted to garden more at my kitchen window for more pleasure. My recent purchase is a Strawberry Saxifraga (Saxifraga stolonifera). I have grown this plant for a few times before already. Each time it was without success and still this time another failure... it seems to be dying slowly :( Good thing it was not that expensive and I used its plantlets for my terrarium :-)

Spot an Azalea bloom? Well, I think that Agave makes a better flower, haha... This is probably why we so love succulents. They are pretty enough even without any blooms.

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) grows rather fast, I mean its roots... I could either harvest some of its roots or re-pot it into a bigger pot. Well, I decided to just repot it...

A weed popped up suddenly after a plant died in this same pot. Not sure what's the ID but it does look like little palm leaves. Don't you think so? But, errr... I do not wish for another palm... 

A flower from my mini hot pepper (Capsicum frutescens)... wow! I am looking forward to another good harvest, yay!

I wish there will rain again soon. It's getting pretty hot. The two times it rained was last week and that's not enough!

Nonetheless, have a wonderful day!
