Today I planted a durian seedling tree and did some weeding and fertilizing around some of the older durians that are over 10 feet tall. Everything is starting to grow faster now that its getter hotter during the day.
I potted up some of the bromeliads I got last week. At first I was into the green variegated types, but now I’m leaning more toward the reddish, pinkish ones with splotches. Theres an unexplainable allure to bromeliads. Maybe because the colors are loud and intense. They are super easy to grow and keep multiplying. I can’t wait till I have enough to paint the whole landscape.
