Recently I was into gardening too. A house with some plants will add up some warm and sweet feel, and sometimes after work reach home and do some gardening can release stress too…a way to get balance too

Yes, it really adds a warm feeling of home.

Sorry, maybe it was my assumption. Don’t panic yet.

But do get some aloe vera. Very handy to have around. And yes, someone mentioned pandan - good for tong-tsui or even agar-agar! These can grow pretty well in pots.

Yes, yes, I must have pandan. Hahaha.

I think you once mention in passing, vaguely, where you are, or near where I am. can’t remember which post it was, but I just thought: Oh, I’m there too, and it kinda stuck to me.

Oh, I can’t imagine having mentioned it in passing because I guard my anon status rather seriously. Haha.

Wonderful! I love plants too, though I don’t know how they’d grow if they were actually under me. Mil is the gardener with the green thumb at home.

Do try to get some aloe vera. Very handy for burns and they really grow quite easily. Don’t need a lot of care.

Ask around from your friends, or can get one from me as we are actually in the same neighbourhood. Do e-mail me:

Errrr…. how do you know we are in the same neighbourhood?

I so totally agreed… love greens, wished we have a garden.. sure makes the house feel like home.. all the best

Yes, I wish I have a garden too but this is the best we can do. Hehe. But come to think of it, a mini garden in pots is probably better for me. Otherwise in no time my garden will be covered with lalang and weeds.

Yes, totally agreed. Home will never looks like a home if there is no natural greenish thing that we called it plant. However, I prefer have a grass field than decorating my house with cactus, it just not my style. But the worse thing of having plants is to maintain them, so good luck for maintaining them. ^^

Haha. Yes, I hope they won’t have all dried up in a few weeks time.

Bravo. We’ve been sitting on our plans for getting greenery for the planters outside our windows, so Nature acted on our behalf and got moss to grow there instead. Sigh… not quite what we wanted.

Well, it took us years to get to this stage so I’m not quite sure you could say bravo. Hahaha.

Some plants are very easy to takecare, just water will do. Get those.

Erm, could you tell me what are those? Hahaha.
