Because Rae Says So

Too weird to live, too rare to die.

Sergeant Green Thumb Activated

The stretch of plant nurseries at Sungai Buloh was exciting. I was so happy I found all the plants I wanted at very reasonable prices, I'm gonna show them off right now!
 Hydrangea; not the color I fancy but look at all the new shoots! Very promising. This one is not fully acclimatized yet so I have to take caution. The chance of not flowering anymore is also present.

Acclimatized blue hydrangea. Also not the colour I wanted and it doesn't look as healthy as the other one but I've seen the parent and it looks ok. I was told they flower about 3-4 times a year. Awesomeness.


 My very own fiddle leaf fig! Hell yeah. I had two of this at my old Coach store and they were so easy to take care. I chose a 3-feet one thinking anything than that will be too big but I am wrong, it is kinda too small. A 5-footer is ideal. The bigger the better.

Ta-da! My 2-footer deep red plumeria, locally known as frangipani. Many of the houses at my neighbourhood have them and they are so gorgeous, too bad I don't have a yard. This will do for now.

Will definitely get more after moving to the new apartment. I still need some smaller plants (which plants I know not yet) for the kitchen and one for perhaps the guestroom and BF's office but I don't remember how well the rooms are naturally-lit so that will have to wait. Just so you know, having plants indoor is a good thing. There are certain plants that act as air purifier at the same time.
To encourage myself with this hobby and to keep things in track, I've made a new blog to chronicle my experience in gardening. Oh, I unconsciously made gardening my thing for 2014. Good for me! I hope you guys have/found something new to do this year too!
