If you're wondering if the two aquatic plants in my patio are still alive, I've got good and bad news for you. The bad news is, the beautiful fern-like one is almost dead. I doubt the crinkly brown leaves will ever turn green again. It looks like a gonner.
The good news is, the reddish one is thriving albeit losing it's red hue. The new leaves are green and large. Still, I'm happy to see it alive and well. (below)
The dandelion from Petunia has grown bigger too. While it is treated as a pesky weed in many countries, it's a rarity here in Singapore.
My heart leapt when I saw a bud. I'm expecting flowers!
OOOOOhhhhhh.. dandelion.. the miracle herb, right? :)
ReplyDeleteI tend to get excited at seeing flower buds too.
ReplyDeleteDont despair yet abt yr fern, try cut all the leaves n water the plant everyday cos the stumps still have roots.I have done a few times with my fern after I left them high n dry for a few mths, miraculously new shoots appear!
ReplyDeleteSome dandelion tea on your patio soon, Ting?
ReplyDeleteOKC - Yup! It's too small to make miracles yet.
ReplyDeleteAutumn Belle - It's like Christmas presents!
ReplyDeleteP3chandan - I cut off the leaves today hoping new ones will grow.
ReplyDeleteJC - Not exactly. I have only one plant, if I use it, I'll have none. I'm waiting for the flower to turn into seeds. Then I will have a whole garden full of dandelions!
ReplyDeleteoH! hahaha! Just ran across your blog. Im from the US and I have a bazillion dandilions! They are taking over my lawn! How strange to find they are exotic to some!
