Autumn Berry - Extended Version 1

These are what I manage to collect: Basket Plant.

They look so well even when they are not growing on soil. In fact, I found them tossed on top of all the branches and dried leaves. There are another original set which had managed to crawl its way to the ground and had colonise there but most of the leaves are damaged - eaten by snails and with burned or damaged leaves.

.

I found this huge Alocasia plant.

Known as Elephant Ears. I guess this is the biggest I have seen, never saw it when I last visit this place. I guess this one manage to grow fast and big.

.

(pic below) I'm holding the smallest leaf from this huge elephant.

I wished I got a lorry and haul up this plant and plant it in a huge pot and admire the Bali style garden in my place. They do well for water garden theme. But I do not have the space nor anyone is interested in this huge plant.

These are the remnant of what was left after all the tearing down, there are more houses been evacuated and been torn down. You can see the pile of bricks and cement debris. Earlier there were some interesting plants growing on that spot before these debris were dumped there.

.

Those left over trees where once in the garden where there were houses & families and children playing in the garden. These were 100 year old ago where the Railway Quarters Houses once stood.

.

I really wonder whether anyone can remember these places.

My mum lived once in this area when my grandfather was working with the railway company.

Back then, she often tell me stories of her childhood where she love to garden and her days spend tending everything from morning till night.

.

That place now is a thriving Business Centre. Its a place now where no one will ever have a clue what stood there before. What is left now is churches, schools and temples but without their primary residents. All those activities done before like playgrounds, football fields and memory lanes are things of the past.
