I started gardening for time pass only. Whereever I go, I used to collect plants and plant them in the garden. But now I am not able to do that here in Chennai.

Hi Manju,

I did not do any thing special to grow kanakambaram. It seems to grow well with the sun and rains in florida here. It's too bad you can't grow those flowers in chennai atleast when you go to kerala u can see them. I also love flowers.
Thank you for posting.

Hi Manju,

Great pics. I just loved them seeing.reminded of my mom's garden in B'lore. It is feast for the eyes..
keep up the good work!

dear manju
just read your post about moving to chennai and not having the garden. i think you are missing your beautiful one back home. did you consider container gardening. its very popular in the u.s.
small space works good for it and you can easily have a wide variety in a balcony. because of chennai temperatures, its easy to grow year round. hope this helps

Dear Chithra,

Thank you. Even I am thinking about container gardening. Really want to see my balcony full of flowers.

Hi Manju,
wow! what a beautiful garden!
I love flowers. Thanks for sharing your garden pix with us.

Manju...
for sure I'll force u to invite me to ur home ......lovely flowers...

Hi piu,

Thanks a lot...

You are welcome to my home.... You can come to Kerala and I am sure you will love my place.

Hi Manju,

Wow! Those are beautiful pictures .. what a lovely garden!

Understand how much you must miss them. I had a small garden in Bgl .. a few pots of tulasi, manjal, jasmine, rose, kanakambaram, geranium and night queen. I had to distribute them all amongst friends and relatives before we came to Sgp .. even though it was just a few pots, it was heart wrenching But, I guess we can both take consolation from the fact that our plants are well cared for

Your pictures have really motivated me .. I'm going to see if I can find some small plants that I can accomodate in the limited space I have here. Wish me luck!

luv,
Priya.
