Seed starting,
Winter Preparations for the upcoming winter season have begun… yayyyyy i’m so excited!! Since i’m not at home right now, what i’ve planned is to start sowing here where i am and then take few the transplants home and sow the rest here.. in a way its gud also now that i have two gardens to handle.. got many varieties that i have never sown before but fallen i love with already.. like Lisianthus i saw in Himachal, Certain kind of begonia and many many more.. i have also order variations never tried before for some common flowers too so the excitement is building up!! The seed order has arrived at my home and will be with me soon so stay tuned for the pics..
P.S. How about sharing your list with me?

Borage,
Chamomile,
Dill,
Herbs,
Hibiscus,
Hydrangea,
Oregano,
Plume After lot of anticipation i can report that one of my two Hydrangeas is finally BLOOMING!! I can’t express how excited i am after longing for these plants for 2 years and everyone telling me it will not survive in this weather.. yea yea yea its a joyful day!!

Study matters have kept me busy and away from my dear garden for long but now now before i go off to another city i have to make sure i set my garden to survive the occasional care it will get.. I’m feeling very sad about it.. But lets keep that aside for now..
Herbs are also coming up nicely finally in my Green(Pink) house.. Here’s Borage, Peppermint, Sage, Dill and these should have been Chamomile and Oregano but i have no clue whats coming up..



Plume is coming up again.. Looks like fountains of pink color.. One of my fav flowers..

After a lot of struggle with mealy bugs(which are now far and few), I have a Hibiscus bloom after long.. Felt really nice to win this war.. hehe I’m sure the other ones will take a cue soon too..

Roses,
Runner,
Strawberry,
Tuberose Container re-arranging is almost done and now i don’t know what to do with the ones that are left.. Shall move some downstairs and hide away others till they are planted.. But the point is WHERE!! Every place has a plant.. Its over-flowing..
The Chrysanthemums i had saved for this season have all rotted because i could not take care of them due to my surgery.. Makes me SAD
:( throwing them out..
I can use some deep pots for Tuberose Bulbs and another for a leftover Caladium bulb.. That will be a gift though..
Today i also noticed a bud on a rose that has never bloomed.. Oh i’m so excited!!

The strawberry has also sent out a runner.. And its so cute!!
