Chrysanthemums adorn the tropical winter gardens




This year I got delayed in planting the seedling and thought the garden looked very empty in December 2014. We had a spell of winter chill, days of no sunlight, in fact we did have even days of persistant heavy fog. So the seedlngs planted didn't seem to grow or thought they didn't have the energy to bloom. After that spell, I gave up. Suddenly, the weather came to our favour, the temperature started rising, and we started getting some sunlight. Then, after that as we crossed over to 2015, suddenly we had this colour burst of “MUMs”. As if suddenly everything woke up. And Wow, look at their spectacular colours and varieties we got this year!! The yellow curly ones, very charismatic, and then alot more yellows in all sizes, then we have the

pink shaded ones, paper-like, then we have the regular white and pink, large variety stuffed with petals and the regular maroon, rows of them. Finally, it was so satisfying. The again to add to the colour of the garden we have the roosteri-cap flowers, all in percing bright colours, yellow, magenta, orange and red!! Now, we wait for the Dahlias to showcase their colours!!
