Closed-up of the catnip leaves, although at 5 wks' old only.

i have new collection for my flowers....will post them soon...
the purple flowers' are blooming well....they looks like tiny grapes hanging here and there...
even that herbs' flower just bloom.....very happy -
The catnip is doing ok, splashy (Shhh...cannot praise too much in case pang tang, like my promegranate).
I am thinking of growing wheat grass as salad for the cats, but then Prime mini mart is selling it at $2 a pack nia, so like not worth planting from seeds like that.
Look forward to your new photos.

last evening....so happened to look up in the sky and caught glimpses of these..
the white portion was much more when we looked up, but the darker clouds moved very fast...then i was searching like mad for the camera in my bag...almost miss the white clouds.....
sui bo?? -
Good morning splashy!
Very pretty, your flowers. The first one is African violet, right? These thrive well in not too sunny places...can even keep them by the window in an aircon office. Used to have a very good one in an ex-office and it kept on blooming and the blooms lasted very long.
What's the 2nd and 3rd flower/plant called?
Sky pictures...hmm...I have quite a few of these, coz I live on 22nd storey. -
Good Morning Wanda!
i don't know the name of those plants/flowers...cos this shop i goes to (kovan) don't have the name indicated...paisay...
hmmm those african violet and 'daisy? ' not only can't hv the direct sun, they also cannot be watered too often, according to the shop owner, only once in a few days time....they told me the leaves can be pluck and replanted...done once but not successful.
how's your catnip doing?? should be taller now.... -
Now that I took a closer look, those aren't African violets which has smaller flowers...my mistake.Originally posted by a_splash:Good Morning Wanda!

My catnip is taller, and I hope studier. But now, my pet project is this one:
He's a stray cat from downstairs which got sick. My neighbour brought him to the vet, but then she herself got ill so I have to take over for a while. Just got him back from the vet last night, so today I have to take leave to make sure this cat don't turn my home upside down. He's very "man" and stubborn. -
wanda,
u really big lover of cats huh?
but cannot see your pix ley... -
Hallo! I'm new here and I will be buying flower seeds this coming friday. I am so excited. I'll be looking for sunflower seeds. Oh and is it possible to plant roses in singapore?

Hmm...your very 1st post and it's on planting...what an honour.Originally posted by woolymooly:Hallo! I'm new here and I will be buying flower seeds this coming friday. I am so excited. I'll be looking for sunflower seeds. Oh and is it possible to plant roses in singapore?
Yes, it's possible to grow roses, as long as they get a good dose of sun everyday. My neighbour's domestic helper does a good job of planting roses along the apt corridor. Our plant specialist a_splash has a good pot of roses along her corridor as well.
Good luck. -
Here's my catnip at 8 weeks...the growth seems quite slow when grown from seeds.
There's a "alien" shoot coming out on the right side (with a different shape of glossy leaf).
-
ah nia,

nia still cannot, u shifted the pix at your photobucket izzit??
my blueish purple flower plant growing well....now need to find time to trim it....my mum was telling me to trim them into 'balls' haha....i hope i don't trim until botak.....
maybe i will just trim it into a rectangular just like its pot, i think it will be easier -

Click on 'Properties' (which opens the properties win)
