Cosmos Seeds Sprouted
Yup the cosmos seeds sprouted on its flower bud!!! Guess the incessant rain these few days is giving them a new lease of life!
Bittergourd
I have a bittergourd vine which I kept at home, just for comparison. Wow, it is doing well! There are now 2 bittergourds growing and another 2 more female flowers which I am keeping my fingers crossed that they are pollinated well!! First time after 2 years that I have 2 in a single vine!! Woohoo.
Hibiscus Acetosella (Red Leaf Hibiscus)
Got 3 free cuttings of the Hibiscus Acetosella yesterday from GCS group! The reason why I want to grow this is because its young leaves can be made into a drink! The colour of which is exactly same as the Roselle. This plant is also known as the Fake Roselle!! The leaves are deep red, which looks so much like the maple leaf (so autumny feel!). Hope all 3 will root!

This is my hand pollinated one! Glad that it made it! I pollinated using 2 flowers so I hope the shape will turn out alright. Shall update!
Passion Fruits!
A lot of my passion fruits turned soft before they even turn red!! A lot of them dropped off on its own and then rotted!! So I had to pick them before they rot again! Argh.. Wonder why... Even though green, they tasted still alright!
