Fresh from the garden, best tak? hehe

I grow a tumeric plant in a pot sharing with kesum plants. I wanted to use the tumeric leaves in my cooking but i tak sempat. And it suddenly dried up and turned into brown color @_@. 

I ignored this dried up tumeric plant for about a month. And yesterday i cleaned up the pot because i wanna grow ginger. Out of my expectation, there are tumeric roots grow beneath the soil! 

The plant look small for me but the roots do develop well. Good job! Frankly, i do nothing for this tumeric plant except watering. 

 
Tadaa...this is the yellow gold that i found beneath the soil

 
This the pot that i used to grow tumeric....Notice the dried tumeric leaves?

 
Tadaaa.....The cleaned nice color harvest

The problem is how should i use it in my cooking? i have never use it in my cooking. Beside masak lemak and fry fish, suggest me a recipe please?

Are you happy if your adenium plant can have different flowers blooming within one plant? 

The answer to have different type of flower blooming is 'grafting' . The Multilayer adenium flower is from the grafted part (the upper part), while the single layer adenium flower is from the original adenium plant (the lower part). Most of the people will not keep the branch that grow from the original adenium plant.

I grafted this adenium early of the year or last year. The multilayer adenium flower is called sweetheart. Both multilayer & normal type blooming are sweet to me

Wild Mini Size Bitter Gourds

My brother picked this little bitter gourd for me. He said this bitter gourd is growing wild just like that.  I am not sure it is called as peria katak or just wild bitter gourd maybe? 

Their size are so mini. The length of one bitter gourd is about the length of 2-3 pieces of bird eye chilies.  

I didn't get to taste them cook, but the raw one yes! It was bitter! You will like it, if you are the same with me prefer a 'more bitter' bitter gourd. 
 

Manage to collect some seeds, will try to grow them. Their seeds are whiter in color compare to normal type bitter gourd. Mr. Google said this bitter gourd is a exotic plant. 

Have you all seen or tasted this type of bitter gourd?

The water jasmine (Wrightia religiosa) or flower anting-anting puteri/jeliti/melati is a favorite choice for bonsai in Malaysia. This plant is said to have quite a good commercial value. 

I have two water jasmine plants left down by previous house owner but I have no idea what is the name of this plant. 

The fragrancescent of this plant is truly amazing! It has small cute dangling little white flowers that able to bloom almost all year with minimum care. 


You can easily prune your plant into any shape and size that you wish to.haha...my plants have no special shape...i just simply trim them. Really need to learn how to trim them nicely.

My water jasmine plants have produced seed pods numerous times but I just do not to collect them. But this time I did!! The mature seed pod will explore just like the adenium seed pod!

Not sure what is the name of this plant. The seller said it is called mini or dwarf type hibiscus. Any idea?   

This dwarf type hibiscus plant produced tiny red color dainty flowers and they shaped like mini lanterns hanging on the plant. 

However, I didn’t expect half bloomed flower from this plant. I still prefer fully bloom flower just like the normal hibiscus.

Beautiful Papaya Harvest 1-5-15

My luck with papaya finally comes. I had grown a few papaya trees before but all of them die before I can taste the fruit. 

This time the papaya tree really loves me. Four papaya fruits get ripen on the same time! Wow! That’s good. I brought them back to hometown during the long Labour Day break. 

I gave two to my younger sister and another two for in law. All of them are papaya lover. 

Papaya taste sweeter if they have ripened on the tree. But beware, ripe papaya is quite eye catching… & it may end up in someone else’s stomach =p 

I feel so blessed to be able to taste my own grow papaya this time, finally.  Both the peel and the flesh of papaya are beautiful in orange-red color, and of course it is very sweet too!!
 
 

 

I wanted to bring home this huge pineapple too. But too bad, it is not ready for me to pick yet. It needs one or two weeks more to be ready. Again, pineapple tastesweeter if it has ripened on the tree
