This blog purpose is to share my success and failures in gardening in a tropic. I have no particular liking to any plant/ flower but once it caught my attention there is no other way for me but to have it. Since I’ve all the local plant that i fancy, now i cast my eyes far away, temperate flower/plant. Hence the existence of My Experimental Garden Blog. Hope you enjoy my blog.

Weekend gardener
Lately I’ve been very busy; i only managed to do gardening work between 1-2 hr on the weekend. Since last 2 weekends i managed to transplant few rooted figs cutting into polybag and pot. I notice that fig growing faster after i transplanted it. This weekend i transplant a few more and took out a few rooted cutting from underneath the plastic cover for hardening before i transplant it next weekend.

Early Russian sunflower
I always love sunflower, this
is one of my favourite sunflower especially after it is just started
blooming.After a tiring day at work i
just need to see the cheerful face of sunflower to rejuvenate. The contrast between the green
centre and semi double bright orange petal is simply stunning. The petal is
like the tongue of fire from the sun.

Lonely no more
This is the only chives that germinate out of few hundred
seeds. Its growth is very slow. After almost a year finally it has another
shoot. Gardening is good for the soul. It teaches us to appreciate diversity
and beauty in God's creation, patient and last but not least the rewards for
those who is diligent and dare to try.
