Rainy start of Water Dragon

Like Kesidang, our pond flowering plant (alisma plantago-aquatica) hasn't bloom this year as well - spotted new buds on the way today. 

Wrightia religiosa made-bongsai blooms in abundance - very happy with frequent rain and sunshine. I trimmed on during spare time, but look forward to more time to slowly gradually shape its branches. 

Episcia growing well on its own - light watering and filtered sunlight. Lovely colored tones leaves punctuated by its bright crimson flowers, beautifies window sills. Perhaps fertilizing and over time - crystalizing at the bottom of its pot. It's so happy in its spot and I can't bear to shift it!

Bright Turneras grounded and bushy! Mum-inlaw locate it next to compete with towering 6 feet high non-fragrant Wrightia. White Wrightia blooms nonstop. Spotted a few neighbours growing white Wrightia fronting their garden, makes attractive welcome.  

5-petal blooms in yellow and white, quite a sight!

Inspecting blooms in varying colors, sizes and shapes all over the garden. His fav? 5-petal blooms in yellow and white; and white-purple plant in this pot; and the shrub (yet to find its name! Saved from the flowerbed) in the next pot.

Bloomless greens

Puzzled over our bloomless Kesidang; it has been somewhat rainy month as we greeted the Water Dragon 2012 year. Kesidang usually blooms well at this time of year - minimal harsh sunlight or sufficient low light coupled with generous and frequent waterings. We're contented with its lush fresh green leaves and healthy stems; makes wonderful filter/shade privacy to the patio area and healthy green backdrop.

Here, my son admires the view as much as we did.

To my delight, DYI One-Stop sells 4 feet high bamboo cane shaped "U", great for keeping twirling Kesidang in its place.
