Hydrangea Farm Challenge

I love hydrangeas and have a dream of having a cut-flower hydrangea farm one day. This blog is a way for me to review my progress in realising that dream and to ensure that I won't give up on this challenge. Come and support me!

Little buds


The sky is blue today. I get the chance to take pictures of the little growths in my garden.


Here's the coming-soon blooms on my bougainvillea.

This plumbago auriculata was deadheaded to the very last cause the plant just wilted away during the drought. Now they too have new growth.

Plumbago auriculata next to the sweet basil.


New buds on the hibiscus tree.

New buds of the hydrangea.




Purple anglelonia biflora with their buds next to the aster that hasn't got any buds yet.


Buds of the roses.

Buds of the dessert rose or adenium obesum.

Buds of the Codiaeum variegatum or pokok puding.

Dianthus' buds


Buds of cananga odorata (pokok bunga kenanga).

The bud of my canna (bunga tasbih).

And finally, can you see the little coming-soon 'bud'erfly?

The ever beautiful sky for the day.

Red Mad

Been a tough season for the garden from may till early august due to drought. Now that it has ended, I'm capturing red flowers in my garden. You can also see the gloomy sky.
Hydrangeas are yet to bloom.

After the rain....

Everything in the garden seems calm after the rain. My hydrangeas are blooming profusely.





My white petunias.

Lantana Camara in light pink.

Here's a new bloom of Benjamin Britten rose.

Another 'coming-soon' bloom of Benjamin Britten rose that I got about 2 weeks ago.

My roses in the garden after the rain.

And here's the calm looking garden with Frangipani flowers on the grass. Small, but it's a heaven for me :)

Higher view

I seldom spent time in the verandah of my bedroom. I did just that this morning, before going to the clinic.

The view of my sekangkang kera garden is different from there.
