I am so great that I decided to go for a walk in the morning instead of later in the afternoon, as it has been raining heavily since then. In the midst of the hot summer season, the rain does not say goodbye and continues to provide fresh and green to plants, flowers, and trees. Today, I discovered that the Blue Water Hyssop, which grows in muddy soil in a corner of my parents' property, has begun to bloom with beautiful purple flowers. Water Hyssop is a perennial plant that…
Rain has been falling since last night and will only stop for a few minutes. There is no sunshine today due to the gloomy and cold weather. The majority of my country is currently experiencing a Summer Storm. Some areas are extremely vulnerable to flooding. When the rain stopped, I went out with my dad to inspect the irrigation system on the property. The Rain Lily, which comes in a variety of colors, has begun to bloom again after being replenished with plenty of rain. The…
My Sunday began early in the morning when I assisted my mom in preparing lunch boxes for the families in our community infected with Covid-19. On Monday, my parents will receive a booster shot to keep their bodies up to date with the new Covid-19 variant, and there will be an ATK Test for active Covid-19 case finding in our community. After finishing the lunch boxes, I went for a quick walk to get some fresh air. There is no rain today, but the weather is gloomy, cloudy, and…
There is no rain today, but it is windy with plenty of sunshine. Since early this morning, I've been taking my parents to get their Covid-19 booster shot, and I've also had an ATK test with a negative result. When I got home, I went alone to check the irrigation system around my parents' property. I passed by my mom's nursery for plants and flowers, which was once considered a junk yard of my dad. My mom's nursery surprised me with a wide variety of Orchids in a variety of…
What is the platform's problem? I attempted to upload my post several times.** I've always been fascinated by the beautiful pansy flower, which I see in the posts of our friend @Snjeguljica on the platform. I spent my morning walk in my mom's garden as usual when I noticed a two-toned flower in the distance and assumed that my mom had pansy flowers in her garden collection. But as I got closer, I discovered that this is a Garden Petunia flower that my mom propagated into…
I was supposed to remove dead leaves and debris from Water Lily containers today, but I need to postpone it to another day, starting early in the morning to avoid the heat from the sun. There is no more rain, and the weather has returned to normal for the hot summer season. In the midst of the hot sun, I found this Light Purple Water Lily that stands out in the Water Lily containers. It pleasantly surprised me with its light shading of two-tone purple with a splash and…
I've been told that many plants have beautiful flowers, but I've never seen or experienced them. Drimiopsis Maculata is one of the plants with beautiful flowers that I remember my mom planting in small pots when I was a kid. However, I had never seen or remembered its lovely flower. My first experience with the beauty of Drimiopsis Maculata flower was probably two months ago in my mom's garden, and I recently saw it on a post by our friends @bbghitte about four days ago.…
The weather is strange in that there is no sunlight during the day and it is extremely chilly and cold at night. I can't believe this is the weather in the summer. I spent my easy Friday morning admiring the beautiful new flowering bud with multi-colored Billbergia that my mom had planted in her garden. I now understand why my mom planted so many of them, as they will begin to flower once they reach maturity, which is usually in 2-3 years. Billbergia flowers are pink,…
Because of the weather changes, I've had a mild fever since yesterday. So it's another lazy Saturday for me. I went for a short walk in the afternoon to get some fresh air. It's a bit gloomy outside with little sunlight, so it's not too hot to spend my afternoon outside. I only stayed in the shade to enjoy my mom's beautiful orchids. They continue to bloom in different varieties while requiring less maintenance. This purple orchid stands out among the others. I'm guessing…
I've been feeling a little under the weather for the past week. I try to keep my distance from my parents as much as possible. Today is the first time in recent days that I have entered their living compound to grab my phone charger. The beautiful scent of jasmine flowers dominated the room as soon as I walked in. I took a peek around and discovered a bundle of lovely jasmine flowers in the vase. Some of their blossoms are still white, while others have begun to change from…
It's no surprise that I'm not feeling well and have a cold. The weather has turned nasty. Today's weather is gloomy, cloudy, and drizzly, with humidity reaching 38 degrees. Even though I am feeling better, I continue to keep my distance from my parents. I only went for a late-afternoon walk to relieve my boredom. Today, the Yellow Dendrobium Orchid in my mom's garden is truly helping me to peace my mind. I wish you all a beautiful Monday.
I feel like I'm living in hell rather than on Earth today, with temperatures reaching 40-42 degrees and strong bright sunshine. I am extremely fortunate that my parents' house is shaded by large trees, greenery, and water features to absorb the sun's heat; otherwise, I would have to spend the entire day inside with air conditioning, which is not my favorite. Some of the Rain Lily in my mom's garden are still blooming, and I'm sure this is the last batch. Light yellow and…
Today is Thai New Year, which is a long national holiday in Thailand. My family hasn't done anything special because some events and activities are restricted due to the Covid-19 measurement. Furthermore, the weather is not favorable to going out or engaging in any outdoor activities, with temperatures hovering around 40 degrees. I only went out for a few minutes in the late afternoon to enjoy the light pink Dendrobium Orchid in my mom's garden. All of you have a wonderful…
The temperature is becoming hotter during the day and cooler at night. I'm still limited to the shade and spend my day in the living room. I only go out in the late afternoon to water my mom's garden plants and flowers. My parents and I are truly blessed in that we have no financial obligations, even during the pandemic. We always grow our own veggies, herbs, and fruits for daily consumption, which is fantastic for our health and ensures that our produce is free of…
As is usual for today, it is scorching hot. There was a strong wind last night that threatened to rain, but it didn't. I only go out in the late afternoon to enjoy my mom's garden and water plants and flowers. Today, my favorite flower in my mom's garden is Aechmea Chantinii. The leaves of Aechmea Chantinii are green with silver stripes, rigid, and bordered with numerous little spines, therefore the common name of Amazonia Zebra Plant. With striking red bracts, the flower…
Recently, I haven't posted nearly as much about my three boy cats. I brought them with me to my parents' home, where I've been since Christmas last year. They have adjusted nicely to their new surroundings and enjoy exploring. However, I must restrict their freedom and only allow them to go outside on occasion. My main issue is that my black cat "Lek" and my big boy cat "Tiger" do not get along well. I need to keep them apart and avoid any interaction. I've tried everything…
I spent almost the whole day on Sunday in the shade, then went out in the late afternoon to work on my mom's garden. Because the bright sunshine has burnt some of the plants and flowers, I need to help my mom in rearranging them in a more shady location. My mom kept the Graptopetalum succulent plants in pots because there are so many. We need to propagate and transparent them in order for them to flourish beautifully. The leaf patterns of Graptopetalum are often as lovely as…
It has been raining heavily since last night and has stopped this morning. With today's cooler weather, I'll be able to spend some time in my mom's garden in the morning. Crepe Jasmine's lovely white flower has begun to bloom. Crepe Jasmine has pure white blossoms and long, lustrous foliage, making it a fantastic focus point in my mom's garden. Crepe Jasmine is a charming small shrub with a rounded shape with pinwheel flowers that include sweet fragrance blossoms. I only got…
After a night of heavy rain, the rain finally stopped in the late morning. Flooding has been reported in certain areas near my parents' home. We were lucky in that our irrigation and drainage systems functioned flawlessly. Today's weather is really beautiful, with light sunshine and a light breeze. I began the day by walking around the property and gathering produce of vegetables and fruits from the garden. We only keep a little portion for ourselves, and the majority is…
The weather has returned to normal, with scorching temperatures and bright sunshine. I only went for a late-evening walk in my mom's garden to get some fresh air. The strong rain the other night washed away some of the Dendrobium Orchid blossoms. But this Dendrobium Orchid's extraordinary color caught my attention of light pink, off white, and a tinge of old rose. What's the weather like in your area?
The sun has been burning bright since early morning, but the sky has become hazy later in the afternoon. I took the chance to go for a little drive with my father to see some land clearing work that needed to be done on my parents' property. This area had been left abandoned, so my parents decided to clear it and plant more fruit trees and other plants. That lovely yellow flower had now taken over an area of the property. Yes, it's the Yellow Creeping Daisy, also known as…
Because the sun was not shining brightly in the morning, I decided to help my mom in picking up some plants and flowers from her nursery to replant in the vacant land. Some plants and flowers were devastated by the strong wind and heavy rain the other night. However, some of the orchids have escaped the wind and rain and have begun their blossoming bloom as if nothing had happened. With its brilliant, gorgeous pink flower, the pink Dendrobium Orchid is taking center stage in…
Although it is Saturday, the weekend, the sun continues to shine brightly throughout the day, making it extremely hot. However, it is wonderful that the rain fell throughout the night, allowing the plants and flowers in my mom's garden to thrive during the day. Trimming the leaves of plants and flowers on the balcony is all I do on Saturday. The Oxalis Triangularis on the balcony is still blooming with gorgeous purple flowers. Oxalis triangularis is very "photophilic,"…
Even though it has been extremely hot throughout the day for the past week, every night rainfall of an hour or more has greatly helped the plants and flowers in their ways to tackle the sun's heat. I spent my Sunday planting seeds for a variety of herbs and vegetables that we use regularly in our cooking. So, in the next two weeks or so, I'll be able to transfer them to the ground or into a pot. Moreover, I need to add more natural compost to the herbs and vegetables in my…
Nothing I can do about the hot temperatures except avoid direct sunlight and limit my outdoor activities to the shade. Today, I finished planting a variety of herbs and veggies that I hadn't finished the day before. I also need to rearrange certain plants and flowers to keep them out of direct sunlight. On my balcony, there are some plants and flowers that I would want to have. Drimiopsis Maculata, often known as the Leopard Plant, is one of the plants that I must have on my…

To avoid the heat of the sun, I began my Wednesday early in the morning. I went outside to inspect the area where my mom needs to grow some plants and fruit trees in order to make the most of the available space. Because this location is shaded by large trees, it would be ideal to plant rhizome plants like ginger and galangal, which we frequently use in our cooking. The ground cover has benefited from the shade of large trees and the fallen dried leaves in maintaining…
My Thursday began with the supervising of land clearing in preparation for the planting of ginger and galangal since early morning. However, due to the heavy rain, things do not go as planned. So I stayed the rest of the day until now, trying to be as productive as possible by making several phone calls to follow up with my assistant at my property. I've been at my parents' house for about four months since last Christmas. A while ago, my assistant sent me a photo of a…
The weather has been extremely hot during the day for the past few weeks, with average nighttime rains. We've been having tropical rain storms since yesterday, and they're expected to last until early May, according to the weather forecast. So amazing that I finished clearing the land where I planned to plant ginger and galangal before the heavy rain started at midday today. So I'll let the earth soak up some moisture before planting later this week. The heavy rain has…
Even though there is lots of sunshine today, the weather is not as hot as it was last night and early this morning due to the rain. I enjoyed my mom's garden once the rain had gone, planting additional herbs and vegetables seeds and preparing the young ginger and galangal plants to be planted in the ground next week. Plants and flowers in my mom's garden seem to be flourishing from the rain, as they have sprouted new blossom flowers and have bright shiny green leaves. The…
