Vines and Creepers by the Gate (Firecracker Plant / Bougainvillea / Chalice Vine)

If I would say not everything is dominated by the Passion Fruit Vine. 

Of which blooms once in a while with the orange-red tones.

The Chalice Vine was growing steadily but seemed never to flower at all.
That is another ordeal of awaiting to do with patience.
I had pushed its vine upward towards the roof side.
If it grace me with flowers - it would definitely be a cascading effect.

Regardless,
Fire Cracker plant never seemed to go slow with its blooms.
That is a burst of flowers spanning over the stalk
Just enough to make the Sunbirds happy.

These dwells at the entrance of my gate.
Few plants - but truly giants like the Fairy Tale.
Jack and the Bean Stalk.
Only if Jack can muster some golden eggs and harp from here.

Passion Fruit Vine - Updates 1 (Passiflora / Sunbirds / Firecracker Plant)

I still can't get over it.
Each bloom is so beautiful that I still marvel over them.
The downside is their fragrance - not sweet aromatic as I expect them to be.
Nevertheless - they do produce fruits which is indeed a big deal
compared to some cultivars / species of which they rarely do.

The Fire Cracker plant is in her own world
careless of who does what - faithfully serving the Sunbirds
This one is a male (much more active and too quick for me to capture on camera)
Somehow this time - I was lucky.

Red Blooms

It is indeed amazing that these red ones actually dwell in my garden invisibly.
You may have to seek them out with a detective lens, armed with a camera,
they are hidden from common sight..

Or perhaps.. As I mentioned before..
I often see them, until they had become invisible to me.

Does that happen to you?
Something so common and that you just walk pass them?

Though their size is tiny and small.
They make up like bright lights, shining red on their colour.
And these are the small little joys in my garden.
Like chilli red - they flavor a sharp spicy taste in between my greens.

How do you see your reds?
Are they all attention seekers or hidden behind a leaf?
Share your story.

These Doritis Pulcherimma is recently purchased for RM10 from another gardener near my place.
It never stop to give out spikes of flowers continuously.
Something that I truly admire with this orchid - never to disappointment me without blooms.

The Front Lines of the Garden (Firecracker Plant / Caladium / Chalice Vine)

I'm pretty sure that there is something special in your garden.
And without a doubt - there is one special plant which will identify as the masterpiece,
A showcase of the whole garden.
That will be the "Tree of Life" in your Garden of Eden.
Likewise, these are the ones like that..
The only issue is that
I have too many of these showpieces that they all compete for attention.
In a manner of speaking - hot red shouting for attention..

What more in the making of putting a garden in a perspective.
There are no rules when it comes to gardening in my garden.




Otherwise,
I would say, gardening is all about feeling.
What do you feel inside of you when you are in your garden.
What intrigue you? Excites you?
These attracts Sunbirds,
there is never a dull moment when I hear the flutters and the squeaky calls,
the flutters and the garden wildlife riots when life exploding with joy in my garden.

Yes, its all about feeling.
I'm feeling alive when blooms explodes daily in my garden.
Vines, plants and creepers fight a war of dominance to get the best light.
It is indeed the Front Lines of the Battle.
