If you have small place for gardening, what plants do you keep?

Hi pinkychan, I'm really glad to know that you do love planting. Since we have the same interest in growing vegetable I know deeply how a "farmer' feel when harvesting. There is nothing happiest than to get the fruitful harvest Well, the same thing happens here. My neighbors as well as my friends always sharing our respective harvest. We sometimes sharing seeds of new variety of plants that we have never planted before. Other than lady's finger I like growing sweet potato, long beans, sweet corn and small chili. We like to stir fry the baby sweet potato leaves with spicy shrimp paste and red pepper. It's the best dish to eat together with plain rice. My husband and his sister like to take the spicy small chili when taking the two daily meals. It's rather safe not to take too many vegetables from the market, for most of them contain pesticide and harmful chemical It's sad that we have no option but still have to ..... Therefore they must be cleaned thoroughly before cooking.

Hai Pinkychan, It is really a worth effort to have vegetable garden at home. We not only get pure vegetables without any chemical mix but they are fresh too. Hai Ikbooi, your garden looks like having good varieties of vegetables and gives your family reasonable supply of their harvest. It is a pleasure to eat the vegetables from our own garden.

My goodness, I think I can say that I can call it and it will be there in your beautiful garden. I can imagine how much hard work you must have been putting in to maintain this lovely garden. Hats off to you Vathsala30. You may expect a sudden guest for your garden any time soon and that is none other than me.

Why anytime, Right now, you are welcome and I will greet you with both of my stretched hands

First of all excuse me for the delayed reply. . As I told you, I had some firefox problem sometime back and certain discussions did not open. Later I switched over to Internet Explorer and ever since I took my son's help and could open all the discussions now. Hence I am giving comments for the responses though it is late but a satisfaction for me that I have respected the precious time taken to respond to my discussions by my co-mylot members. Better late than never. For this reason, I have not started any new discussion too. It is remarkable to note that in spite of being busy, you do allocate some time for gardening. Whether it is small or big, easy plants or difficult to manage plants, gardening gives full feeling of satisfaction to any one. It is very interesting to see leaves and flowers coming in our plants. Have a good gardening day.

Good idea friend.

Vav! Bed of marigolds! That sounds great.

The Chrysanthemums are so beautiful. Please plant them when you get a chance and enjoy watching them.

It is a pleasure to have Sunflower at home. I had them when I was small, in my garden. Your idea of green onion plant is superb. Like it is said that you can have the cake and eat it too, in the same way you can cut the leafy onion for use and can have the plant too in the pot.

Getting fresh vegetables from our own garden is really very satisfactory and happier.

The plant collection in your house is very interesting especially five colours of hibiscus is really beautiful to have.

Do you know one thing? I have been thinking of planting a watermelon plant in my small garden and thinking whether it is feasible to have the plant there. You read my mind. I hope you get a good garden space and plant many watermelon plants in that, so that everyday you can cut one fruit and eat it.

That is a good idea Yan_blue8. You will be self-sufficient as far as leafy vegetables are concerned. That is really sad to know that you could not spare time for the vegetable plants, Joannaleed. It is ok, friend, when you have time, plant them again and feel happy.

Keeping vegetable garden at home is always useful and satisfactory.

I am sending daisies to you. Please accept.

Very welcome idea friend.

Hai it is a new information that I got from your response. I made a search in the internet now and saw the plant. It seems there are many more uses for this plant. Thanks for the information.

That is really interesting to know that even in the small place behind your house, you kept both vegetable and flower plants. Chamanthi plant is always interesting and beautiful, whether normal one or chitti chamanthi.
