Secret Garden

Although I don't really have a secret garden, it's not a secret that I love plants and trees.

Ditto in his favorite corner
Going to a nursery is perhaps one of my favorite shopping spree's.

I love having plants around the house and specially when I can grow things from a seed, it makes so accomplish to be able to create something with love and care.

Our plants are doing pretty good lately, but it's definitely not easy to keep them that way when we get a lot of wind that comes packet with sea salt.

not sure about this plants name, perhaps related to "tiger paws"?
Cactus
Peppermint plant doing really well


Frangipani tree growing more every day

On another note... I am very happy because yesterday after work when I got home I jumped in the pool and it was so nice, water is getting a bit warmer and inviting, plus the weather is very nice and beautiful.

Oh, so jealous of your time in the pool! I can't wait until it warms up here again, though the winter really hasn't been unbearable so far.

I have a brown thumb. Growing up in an urban environment did not help me any. Yeah, you heard me right...give me a plant as a gift and it should be dead within the week...no matter how much I take care of it...

Love the blossoming Frangipani! By the way, I heard from my cousin sister that you actually need to talk to the plant everyday in order for them to grow up faster and nicely?? Is it true?

I call the one in the green pot the hospital plant, because I got it from the hospital
The cactus was smuggled from Cayman Brac.
Did you "P" in the "Ool"?

I love plants and flowers too, really! But - for many years I have preferred to look at them in nature, where they come from; Before I had children I had 32 plants in my home (!) and they were all doing well. But - after the girls came, they are now down to 3 or 4 plants, and none of them are doing particularely well :-( So, I guess I have given too little attention to them, and given it all to the girls instead (so hopefully they are blooming lol). One day, when I grow older, and the girsl are grown up, I´ll take up nursing plants again. Btw. the frangipani is LOVELY, Sooo bright, I just love it :-))
