Peek into my garden!
Though not a biggie, I grow aroung 30 shurbs, 3 veggies, 3 climbers, 3 trees and some medicinal herbs.
The Shrubs
Hibiscus
Hibiscus is the mostly found plant in my garden. There are about 7 types hibiscus of different colours and shapes in the garden.
The Shrubs
Rose
Roses are the sybol of love and Beauty. Growing it is as difficult as yo could think of it! I have 2 types of roses, one locally called as “Panneer rose” with an heavenly smell and the other is the “Queen of flowers”, the Red Rose.
The Shrubs
Ixora
Locally called the “Idly poo”, as it resembles the fluffy dish, Ixora is a delight for the bees. Its got a lot of nectar and is a treat to the eyes. But the shrub is easily infested and need a lot of care.
The Herbs
Basil
The tulsi is a holy plant in India. It is respected greatly and is often given to us during cough and colds. A tulsi plant grew to a height of 7 feet in our garden!
The Herbs
Oregano
Frankly speaking, I never knew this plant to be the oregano. It was here for a long time and we all hated it as it was made into a medicine for cold and cough! It is called as “Omavalli”.
The Veggies
Chillies
Did you know that chillis is fruit of plants from the Capsicum family? And also are xmembers of the Solanaceae family. There are many varieties of chilli plants, some of which are the hottest peppers known.
The Veggies
Tomato
Tomatoes are long-growing, heat-seeking, sun lovers! These warm-season plants do not tolerate frost. The days to harvest depends on the cultivar, but the days to maturity ranges from 60 days to more than 80 days.
The Veggies
Brinjal
The brinjal, which is commonly known as the eggplant or aubergine in the western world, is closely related to tomatoes and potatoes as it lies in the same Solanum family.
The Veggies
Palak
Palak is an Indian term for Spinach. Indian Spinach or palak is not genetically modified and is a lot softer and tender with smaller leaves.
The Climbers
Beetel
This leaf is well kmowm for beedas, but also is a traditional gift to the visitors of the house. It grows on its own, but dont pluck a lot of them, It suddenly stops growing!
The Climbers
Money Plant
This is the center of attraction in our garden. This climber adorns our sunshade like a wreath also grows along the neem tree. The leaves are as long as our hands and are an awe striking decorators.
The Trees
Neem
The tree is now 10 years old and stands high housing scores of birds and giving us shade. The tree chills the surroundings and the cool breeze 🍃 generates is ❤
The Trees
Banana
The banana tree was planted probably in 1990 by my grandparents👨🦳👩🦳, and still grows at its best! Though it gives more leaves than the bananas.
