Reorganising the Garden

By Stephanie
For many months now, the Oxalis regnelli 'Atropurpurea' bulbs seemed like they are all rotted or wilted. They didn't! Instead, the bulbs sent out more blooms than leaves :-) Reorganising the Garden

I moved all my potted plants so much when I was re-organising the garden. I am sure I had damaged some foliage and even flower buds along the way. But for this hoya, Hoya Pubicalyx, I was surprised to see the buds blossomed :-)
Reorganising the Garden It was really hard work having to move those ceramic and clay pots around. My back muscles were all aching after that!! Now that I have completed the task, I am so glad. The floor is cleaner now and I know how much space more I have for additional plants ;-) I have not added plants to the garden for a long time already!

Meanwhile, my Sundew (Drosera tokaiensis) is doing well and I am just waiting for the little thing to flower.

The Mock Strawberry (Potentilla indica) that is placed besides Sundew is showing its red fruits again...

And my old Fringe Flower plant (Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum) is flowering profusely again -- like the Oxalis. No much leaves on the shrub but lots of flower.

I found another great rose to grow! This short miniature rose came from my friend's garden. I helped her to prune the plant and took the cuttings home. They rooted and now about to flower soon, yay!

My tall Rosa 'Othello'...

There are three roses on the same plant this week. My hand is holding one of them -- just to show you how big the rose is ;-)

Little sprouts of Flowering Caixin (Sawi Bunga). I wonder why they are so tall? Hope they grow true leaves soon...

An orange hibiscus blossomed on National Day. Cheers to Malaysia :-D

My patio garden now, ta da... lots of potted plants on a tiled compound. Like to see this part of the garden from this angle as it looks more organised, hehe...
