My Garden – My Haven

I get to look at this every morning, grin with pride and whisper sweet nothings. I know I know it’s not much but I have fallen in love with my small balcony garden. It’s my happy place where I can play with dirt. Now, this is just the flower section which I can see from my living room. Other plants (veggie section) are hidden behind our lounge.

Let me introduce my plants to you –  I’ll have detailed posts about each one later.

• Hibiscus – Lot of buds on it currently
• Couple of  Pink Impatiens – pot on the railing
• Hanging Calico Kitten – there are more succulents in the pot but not in the shot
• Asparagus fern in the red polka dot pot
• Elephant Bush (Portulacaria afra)
• White wild flowers (probably from the Aster family) – in the yellow and orange pots
• Mini Pink Rose
• Red Gerbera daisy
• Dahlia – still very young
• Clematis bare roots in the corner blue pot (hasn’t sent out any shoots yet 😦 )
• Aloe Vera

Quotes every gardener relates to –

• Gardening requires lots of water – most of it in the form of perspiration – Lou E
• Gardening : the fine art of soil to soul – Jan Bills
• To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow – Audrey Hepburn
• There are no gardening mistakes, only experiments – Janet Kilburn Phillips
• Gardening is the slowest of the performing arts – Mac Griswold
• Gardeners know all the dirt

That’s all for now….Ciao until next weekend 😀
