Out from basement

Here come these pots from basement to have some fresh air after dormancy...I am not hopeful that oregano can make it this time. But others look good.

Healthy burden

I know Wheat Grass is good for health, but when it comes to growing, how come it seems like a burden?? It is very easy to grow add some seeds to dirt and you get grass, I am not able to keep up the growing part regularly. Need to get energetic to grow something energetic  :)

Visit to Boston public garden...

Frost Casuality

 Its so sad to say bye to Peace Lily. It was so lush and green at one point of time and due to a bit negligence we lost it :(. You can see the past glory here.

Open Terrarium

Isn't it cute?? I learned something new this weekend when I visited our local garden center, Mohoney's. There were many Terrariums and kits for sale. I had everything on hand except for some charcoal and plants to make one. Here is the outcome of my project. This is such a easy and neat idea to have your own micro garden contained and easy to care for. The Terrariums on display at Mahoney's are a great inspiration.

Refreshing and Rejuvenating

I had never imagined till I got a juicer that vegetable juice could be so refreshing and rejuvenating and something I could get addicted to. Still figuring out various combinations to enjoy. Only thing not digesting my mind is the pulp that comes out while jucing, composting would be one of the option or need to do some goggling to find some ideas of using it...

Amaryllis kept its word

In Dec 2010, I bought a Amaryllis bulb in a pot. It grew with few leaves and nothing happened on flowering side, so left the pot in basement and to my surprise, last 2 weeks back I saw it growing with small flower bud. Now here it is with beautiful flowers.

Mom's Garden

You could find mums, marigolds, ornamental plants, Aloe vera and firecracker flowers (I know them as Kanakambharams and on googling found the english name).
