summer gardening 2013


Summer gardening is not easy, the summer here in Perth is so harsh and dry. but so far the long purple beans are the winner for sumer, it seems like they are immune to the summer heat and grow very well, the only bad thing is they are always little ants on them especially the flowering, according to my brother in law the ants are to pollinate the plants, so I left them alone and I got much more beans, but not going to pick them, a few of my friends and family was wanting some seeds.

The passion fruit plants doesn't seems to be growing, to me it is still the same height as i bought it, any tips to make it grow?

squash seedlings

The squash is slowly growing. this snapshot was taken about a week ago, they now have 3 leaves. ;)

green amaranth - Amaranthus viridis
I always thought this was a weed, so many years I have been pulling it out and tossing them in the bin, until one day my brother told me it was actually edible and asked me to keep growing it so he can come and harvest it. 

For people who don't know what it is. check out the following links on what it is and recipe.

sugar snap peas
I was excited to see the sprout, but then soon found out they were short lived as peas are not meant to be planted in summer time, so today I have pulled the all out and have planted radish in placement, apparently radishes love the heat and is ready to harvest in only 4-6 weeks, so cant wait and I'll definitely update.

cake time

This was my 1st attempt at making chocolate cake thats not out of a packet, chocolate butter cream icing and also piping. It was a messy but this was the outcome. And surprisingly it tasted nice so I decided to do it again. 

We were invited to have xmas lunch at a friends place, all I can say is I tried but my cake was up stage by a utopia cake called MOMO. But I was told my cake tasted better. =)

Finally a beautiful rose for a beautiful sunny day. 

Bear

Meet Miss Luna!!




long distance

Long awaiting companion, we got the black bunny yesterday, all the way in Banksia Grove. 
We were told on arrival the bunny had a bad family before therefore she is always frightened, so hope fully Miffy will be a great companion for her, when we got her she was very different from Miffy when he was a baby. 

oh… we named her Luna. 

She was very soft and flimsy like no muscle at all and when i placed her on the ground her hind legs were very slippery, so being a worry wart like I am, I booked her in to the vet the very next day and had her checked out. vet said cos she was in a bad condition possibly just locked up in the cage and no roaming. Her muscles never got exercised, hence the limpness and possibly the diet was not right for her, poor thing.

Well one thing I know for sure at now she is vaccinated and now the hard part is litter train her, hope it will go well considering she is adult stage now and never been potty trained. But at least now shes  going to have a friend to snuggle up to. 
They actually bonded quite well. Miffy is desexed so nothing to worry about. sigh of relief, no baby bunnies for this couple.
