My Sunburned Cattleya
It is a crime to neglect all my plants, I know that..but alas I have no time and opportunity to lavish any one of them with the old tender loving care.
The cattleya I brought from old home seems to be doing fine until I moved the pot to a new location. Little did I notice [...]

Bunga Kertas - Bougainvillea glabra
I’ve had these 3 pots of bougainvillea for the past 6 years. When we moved to this new house, I thought of leaving them, but SIL advised me to pruned all the sharp thorny stems and transported them together with other plants.
So after a few months of adapting to new surrounding and location, they are [...]

Anthurium Acropolis - Flamingo flower, Tail flower
Anthurium, from anthos, meaning flower, and oura, meaning tail, refers to the many tiny true flowers that form in the yellow tail-like spadix. (Taken from hawaiitropicals.com)
For many years I grew a pot of anthurium in my garden, but lately the one and only pot of anthurium seems to be dying. So since I went to [...]

Cabbage Rose - Rosa centifolia
I think what I have in my garden is Centifolia rose, also known as roses with a hundred petals or cabbage rose. Well, at least until I get myself confused with Bourbon rose..huhu! So if there is any rose expert out there, please clarify my confusion.
Taken from the website : Heirloom Roses:
Centifolias are a complex [...]

Cattleya Orchid
It took me sometime to find the correct group which this orchid belongs to. Initially I was given the bulbs by my SIL and since I never see the flower, I was not sure whether it is the usual dendrobium or something else.
After researching further, I think it is really a Cattleya orchid. You see, [...]

Kesidang - Vallaris glabra
This picture of kesidang plant has been taken somewhere last year. Over the last few months, with my morning sickness and all, it seems to be dying slowly. However since it is quite a sturdy and hardy plant, it grows back and today I notice some flower buds are coming out.
What I love the most [...]

Rose, Roses Are Red
I have kept this rose for as long as I can remember and it just proves to be very hardy despite a few times attacked by mildew, black spot, insects and whatnot.
I’m not sure what type of rose plant it is - whether it is Hybrid Tea, Polyantha, Floribunda, Hybrid Perpetual, Climbing, Shrub Roses or [...]

Sepuleh
After much searching I couldn’t find the scientific name for this plant. I only know it as Sepuleh (sepulih?) as that’s what my MIL told me when she gave me the bulb.
I have this Sepuleh plant for more than 3 years now and recently the flowers came out in large head. So since that was [...]

So here is Kemuning - Murraya paniculata. [...]

Spathoglottis plicata-Philippine ground orchid
Thanks to a reader who pointed out, I think the previous pictures of my orchid-like plant should be renamed to Spathoglottis plicata.
It grows well in tropical and semitropical areas as it thrives in great air circulation and very bright light, as well as hot temperature.
The flowers will be in magenta (pink-purple) color and bloom repeatedly, [...]
