summer flowers - Wellington 2014

another posting based on my Otaki and Khandallah trip ..kali nie nak tepek the photos of flowers ..selain daripada the awesome fruit trees and wonderful orchard, that house that we visited tu is surrounded with flowers and plants ....and since it is summer, memang very colourful and  attractive ....

warm yellow dahlia ....aku tak snap the white one ..the white one was so pretty but masa tu aku baru sampai and tangan full with salad bowl ..so tak snap photo

the vibrant hydrangea ...yang nie my fav summer flower ... ada banyak colour ..the most common is white ..tapi my fav is the blue ones ......tapi katanya warna, which can range from reddish ...pink ...white and blue ...all depend ngan the level of acidity tanah .....katanya lah ......ooo yang kat belakang hydrangeas tu is Crab Apple ...first time aku dengar species apple nie ....

tak tau bunga apa nie hehehe ...but i saw it kat vegetable patch ...mixed with the chillies and the tomatoes

 
even patio pun dikelilingi oleh bunga ...feel at home coz bunga kertas banyak here hehehe




and the great thing is that, the hosts bagi kami bunga2 untuk di bawak balik ...she even gi trim the flowers and gave us ....so rumah aku berseri2 ada jambangan bunga that week after my Otaki trip ....and bila stop by at Kak Shidah's place pun sama ....the place is surrounded by lovely  flowers

these are the Blue Lily of the Nile ...a type of lily ...cantik!

white hybrid tea roses ....pink alstromeria ....and the lily ...very pleasing to the eyes

from the garden to the dinning table ..hehehe ambik from FB kak shidah ...she just loves flowers!

and today, I gain custody of two of her potted plants ..i helped her gi clear her office ,..but i mentioned i nak gi beli pokok for my office ...my opismate and i plan nak add pokok to our office kan ...but kak shidah kata takyah beli ...i cn plant my own plant at her place ...but then dia fikir ambik jer the ones kat her office ...heheheh so yeah, I gain custody of the plants!

i took the one at the bottom ..and one other plant :-)

anyhow ..since summer kan ..meriah colour bunga bunga kat sini ...but soon ...it is gonna be autumn ...with daun2 kekuningan and berguguran ...and hopefully by then I will be back home to sunny and humid Malaysia ...tanah air ku yang tercinta!

Aku kesian kat pokok pokok yang nko took over tu. Risau semua kiok kelayuan. Ha ha ha.

sebab tu pokok pokok tu akan bermastautin kat opis aku ...so that aku tak bertanggungjawap sepenuhnya ...ada org shares the responsibility utk water the plant dan memberi kasih sayang pada pokok pokok itu ...hahahaha

Liz Duan said...

Ha..ha .. sempat tu intention nya nak berkongsi kasih sayang...cool kawan aku ni..

Liz Duan said...

Tapi cantiklah taman kawan tu...rasa teruja nak gardeng

Ejin said...

hahaha ..sebab aku kan ada sejarah membunuh pokok ..so dengan sharing responsibility tu, possibility aku membunuh pokok pun half le ..mamat tu beriya riya nak water the plant tadi ..so I will leave it to him!
