Although I loved gardening, but I must say that I am not really a very good gardener. I tend to forget the fertilizing schedule, or completely ignore the plants that I have in my garden. And that is the reason I want to build a system that allow me to just let most of the daily work to be a little bit automated, especially watering those plants, which somehow it is should be easy to do, but never been able to do it properly. It is mainly because I am not home, all the time, since I work away from home, and then rent a boarding room near my work place, so I could only care for the garden when I am home, or when I can.
Despite all that, some of the plants decided to reward me a little bit by showing me some fruits, so that I can be a little bit happy with the slightest things that I gave to those plants. Hopefully (just hopefully) I can take care of them much better next time.
I will start with this tomato that I have and now it only has one fruit only. It used to have some, which I already harvested, or harvested a lot faster by my son who loved to pluck them when it was still so small.
I don't think I will get another harvest next time from this plant, although I still see some flowers emerging on the stalk's tip.
Here I have something that I am a little bit proud of which is this chilli plant. Why I am happy because I managed to keep them alive, until they bore some fruits without any pest attack. Although the plant could be bigger and bear more fruit, at least I have something to harvest. A good start isn't it?
This is the hibiscus flower, quite small, but still lovely. A place where I can attract a lot of critters to visit and then I could have some subjects to photograph for my macro shots. ; )
The flowering Nusa Endah plant. It is almost always on the bloom, which is very nice, but unfortunately, I could not use it as part of the offering. not very commonly used flower for the offering.
beautiful Frangipani flower in my yard.
Here is another type, which I planted side by side. Now they appear to be one tree with two different type of flower.
Now I will show the bad part of my garden.
here is the ornamental plant that I planted above my house wall. I want it to be the cover to block the view from the alleyway into my house, but it is not growing really well. see the water bottle there, it was a little idea to make a self-watering device, but the water from the water bottle was finished only in a night. lol
A little bit sad one.
And this one is the hanging garden on the outer side of my wall, the idea is to have them grow so that my house looks green from the outside, but at the moment, it rather looking so bleak, and has no life at all.
