AMARANTH PATCH

Such a shame...
I couldn't connect with the internet for several days.
We got problem with my netbook and android.
I used two blogging with these gadgets. 
I couldn't take any pictures from our home garden.
So, finally I opened some albums from the flash disc and find.

That was a picture of our eastern backyard on 2015.

A bit messy but so lovely in my opinion, cause this bed was so productive.

Cabbage, edible cosmos, three varieties of amaranth and other greens grew so healthy here.

Enjoying the red color...

At that time this place was getting an abundant sunshine, no shade.

Although, I had to share the greens with caterpillar and grasshoppers.
Remembering the beauty...

HARVESTING THE VOLUNTEER

TERRACE GARDEN : UPDATE SEPTEMBER

This is our terrace garden in September.

Nothing special, expect our red cabbage row.

Lets we see closer...

In the center row there are cherry tomatoes, pakchoy and broccoli.

The eastern side...

Last two pots of cauliflower, eggplant, hot peppers, cabbages, thai-basil and mint.

The northern side...

Caisin, eggplant, green onion, and ornamental peppers.

They looks so healthy...

The southern side is brassica patch.

Green cabbage on the lowest rack.

The middle row is for 'Sawi Morakot' a kind of mustard-greens.

The highest rack is red cabbage row.

The western side...

This is the picture taken in the last of September.

The row of pakchoy and seedling tray in the highest row. 

Pakchoy, parsley and striped amaranth in the highest rack.

The middle row of the rack is for red amaranth, green onion and sawi keriting.

Sawi keriting is in the end of productive period.

Lots of progress on our terrace garden on the early of July.
This was a view from the eastern balcony.

The same spot was taken from the west side.

A row of cauliflowers, mints, eggplant and bunga ekor kucing.
Red flowered Ekor Kucing (Acalypha hispida pendula).
The flower dangling on the wall, so lovely...

Local green chili or cabe rawit looks so promising.

New strawberry patch under the row of okra on the middle of the garden.

Northern rack with mustard green, green onion, red amaranth, red okra, cabbage and also edible weed.

Red and striped amaranth

Legetang, a tasty aromatic edible weed.

We are still having rain this month, although it must be in dry season
We can see the little change here
Growing healthy and so happy...
Happy July...

BEAUTIFUL PATCH ON THE TERRACE GARDEN

Love to see this patch ....

So many vegetables with so various color and shape are growing so healthy here.
Parsley, red and green amaranths, packcoy, lettuce, mustard green and green onion.

The row of strawberry plants on the white pot behind.

EDIBLE WEED ON THE MUSTARD PATCH...

It's the new patch on the drying area, next to the terrace garden.

Actually the main crop is mustard green.
But we can find lots of little plants here.
All the 'weeds' is self sown seedling.

These are chili pepper seedlings.
Need to be transplanted soon.

Very healthy Krokot or purslane (Portulaca oleraceae).

Healthy amaranths both of green and red.

The Physalis or tomatillo needs to be transplanted too.
And other edible weeds, ready to be harvested and cooked.
So the main crop will grow better.
