January 23rd update....

i have a cold and resting at home today...so am taking this opportunity to update this little blog of mine...the two Giant Granadilla babies planted a few days ago....do not look encouraging...the stems are rather shrivelled...aahh this is a second attempt...but well i have not totally given up hope on them yet...hope with time they will perk up....

...as this Achillea has done...it arrived on 8th October 2013....looking totally dead....

...today 23rd January 2014...it looks like this...Alhamdullillah....

Achillea Saucy Seduction...may you flower soon....

The yellow figs are showing good progress too....

...and alhamdullillah my Daylily Hemerocallis Parson's Choice is about to bloom...the buds...though only 2 little stalks....are burgeoning day by day.....it will not be long now before it blooms....hints of colour can now be seen on them.....

The other 2 Hemerocallis....Gentle Ed and Scottish Fantasy... that arrived with Parson's Choice have not shown any signs of flowering yet...but are both showing good vigour...in fact Scottish Fantasy looks more vigorous than Parson's Choice.....

Daylily Scottish Fantasy

Daylily Gentle Ed

...and my Lousiana Iris is blooming again....

...also one of my glads is on the brink of blooming...hints of colour can already be seen...looks like another red...or probably pink...hopefully the latter...as i do have quite a lot of red glads already.....if i am not mistaken this glad is from my dear friend Dr Wan Hasmah....

Finally...last but not least....my Lavender...also from my dear friend Dr Wan Hasmah.....is also showing good vigour...aah but yet to bloom... am still waiting....hopefully in the near...very near future....

woops...i almost forgot my Avocado Haas...yep it seems to be doing fine up to date...no pic though...!
