Finally the Bunga Kesidang Blooms !!!

This morning, I thought I detected the fragrance of the Bunga Kesidang (read post dated 23/11/2010)   near the fence where it grows, but  then it started to rain rather heavily. So I could not see  the flowers.  As  I mentioned in my post dated 29th April 2011, the plant has grown quite a lot since I planted it a year ago, with such big light green leaves., trained along the fence.  Immediately  after lunch, once the rain had stopped, I stepped back into the garden to investigate further ....yes the fragrance is still there alright, but where are the flowers ? 

Ha.... there it is -  hidden shyly behind the fence !  Wow, just a small bunch of blooms but the fragrance is so strong ! Right now  I am still feeling so happy and rewarded after all this waiting.....! Smile with me as you read this post ...... haha....lolz !

The flowers are so shy,  facing downwards even as I try to take their photos ! Could it be the rainwater ? 

Mirabilis Jalapa re-visited, this and that .....

These days the Mirabilis Jalapa plants  (the 5 colors that I have right now) seemed to be flourishing and  blooming again. Somehow the 4 o'clock Flowers (posted 22/6/2010) when blooming in abundance can be rather eye-catching. Problem is I have to keep removing the baby plants that sprouted all over easily.....aside from picking away as many seeds as I can !

 Magenta and  White

Magenta only

White and Orange

Innocent  Pink ....

Red and White

The Reds in Full Glory  ...

Then there is my all time favorite, the Angel Wing Jasmine (posted 23/8/2010) aka Jasminum Nitidum. The delicate white flowers are so dainty and pretty ... they never fail to  brighten my days whenever I see them in bloom. 

For sometime now I had been wondering when these Caladium  (posted 23/8/2010) will bloom again.... Well here is the bloom hidden amongst the leaves which somehow are oversize these days , perhaps from the constant rain !

There you are, Cute Baby .....!

Flourishing from the  heavy rains these days....!

Lastly for today's blog entry check out these "Colorful Bugs"... ! I  have not gone round checking their names !  

Magnified, so a bit blur...sorry !

Here's another on the roselle..

Long Face bug if that is its name, lolz... !

These bugs are tiny, but very lively and active ! Let's hope they are friendly and not destructive .... !
