Its been a very long time since i haven't reported in this blog i don't even remember when i have had posted last time.Well i was really busy with my exams and all the other stuff.I have tried many times to post but something fussy happened and it diverted me doing so.During winter's it was damn fun i had sown many different varieties of seeds and bulbs i had even planted tulips and some other exotic bulbs i will surely post about tulips and hyacinths some other day.Its spring here but it feels like summer, gosh i have already lost a few couple of plants.Many of the seeds which i had sown in october are flowering now.The one which you are seeing below is clarkia its blooming like crazily,though i had sown a pack of mixed color seeds but only pink popped out so far but it doesn't matter.


phlox:-
 I can never ever forget the sweet,mind boggling smell of these beautiful flowers....I just can't get enough of phlox they have come up in many different shades and pattern's.I had sown three different brands of phlox seeds Namdhari,Pocha and Bhavani.Namdhari seeds are worth a try in fact they are more than a worth..pocha seeds sucks......

The pic below is of phlox drummondii series grown from Bhavani seeds..


P.S. Stay connected.. back to nature is back with a bang! Lots to blog about.. Till then Happy Gardening :)

flowering bulbs

                                                              paper white narcissus
Paper white is another easy bulb to grow in warm climates very tolerant of poor soil and does not care whether planted in sun, semi shade and even full shade. And if that is not all, it does not mind drought as well and an easy bulb to store for the next season.A perfect bulb to try which is very fragrant with a pungent smell.
Dahlias are my damn favorite flower's i prefer to grow both single and double dahlias. 
Dahlias are my favorite flowers since my childhood.I remember when i was 10 i went to a nursery with my parents and i saw one beautiful purple color dahlia there that was the first time i saw dahlia flower and i called it purple sunflower and i asked my parents to buy it but sadly they didn't.
