Buddha, originally uploaded by malyousif. The Buddha Patch survived the summer a lot better than I expected this time. Even the bamboo seem to have finally taken root and are really getting on. Buddha is happy! Have a wonderful weekend my friends.

For (my) record, let me list what I have done: 1. Southern border extended: To my surprise, one of my Cassia fistulas broke [...]
Oriental garden, originally uploaded by malyousif. The plinth is built and Buddha is gracing it with his presence. I’m glad that this phase is over now, the basic construction and infrastructure.
