The Gladiolus, originally uploaded by malyousif. The gladies are flowering again. I’ve planted about 70 bulbs in this patch and we didn’t think that they’ll flower this season. We thought we planted them too late, considering that the original several bulbs in that patch have already flowered by then, but I noticed that the stalks [...]
The Datura has gone wild, originally uploaded by malyousif. It looks happy in its location. Needs a bit of pruning at the end of the season to encourage it even more. Got another I planted in the office garden and that’s looking particularly happy too. Too young to flower yet though.
A new service that’s just come up on the Internet, take a couple of pictures – one simulating the view from the left eye and the other the right eye and the system combines them. Perfect for garden shots like this one!
Euphorbia Milly (giant variety!), originally uploaded by malyousif. This is the only “giant” variety of Euphorbia Milli I’ve got in my garden. its flowers are about an inch in diameter (many times larger than the usual variety) but the thing is, this plant normally has beige flowers, I have no idea how it morphed into [...]
Rockets!, originally uploaded by malyousif. I lost the tag for these beauties but they’re doing very well in pots and in the gardens at home and the office. Have a wonderful weekend, and if you do know what these are, please share!
Morning Glory, originally uploaded by malyousif. Morning Glory is very pervasive and takes over everything in its path. We planted this along with 3 other types of creepers on the pool area wall and it looks really lovely especially in the morning. Have a wonderful weekend my friends.
The Cactii Patch, originally uploaded by malyousif. I love this arrangement. I change it around once in a while, but generally I’m really happy I opted to replant most of the cactii in pots about 3 years ago. Have a wonderful weekend my friends.
Aloe Vera Pokers, originally uploaded by malyousif. I planted many aloe veras by the old frangipani last year, I’m reaping the rewards this year as they all flowered and the scene is gorgeous in that area. The pokers themselves are enough I think. Pretty happy! I wish you a continued peaceful long weekend and a [...]
A quick tour of my garden shot this morning – entirely on the iPhone 3Gs so please excuse the quality. I just wanted to primarily show the beautiful Gladiolus Callianthus (the Peacock Orchid) shown at the start of this clip, but I just got carried away and shot other things in my garden. Hope you [...]
Geraniums in the teardrop, originally uploaded by malyousif. It’s overcast today with spurts of rain now and again. The garden is loving it. I’m loving it, and the colours too are loving it! Have a wonderful Friday my friends.
