I won a rose....Being a member of the <strong><em>Home and Garden Forum</em></strong> has given me a lot of support and opportunity to grow roses in Malaysia. Besides the knowledge and ideas that we share together, we also have regular get together where we have nice home cooked meals and also interesting garden items sales....<br />
<br />
Recently we had a gathering in Cherating, a beautiful beach in Pahang, which is located about 300km from Kuala Lumpur. The gathering was attended by youngs and olds.. the oldest being 78 years old and the youngest was a 2 years old girl...<br />
<br />
Lucky me....ohhhh..lucky me....!!!!<br />
<br />
One of the Committee Member, who is a local there had been so kind to surprise me with a beautiful rose ....for being the first person to arrive in Cherating...!! <br />
<br />
What a nice surprise and it's such a beautiful rose as well...<br />

This rose is from Cameron Highland and it has to go through the hardening processs before it can flourish like the normal roses. <br />
<br />
So here it comes.... I have to put to practise all the theory that I have learned from my Sifu...<br />
<br />
This is what I am suppose to do during the hardening processs..<br />
<ol><li>Keep the plant away from glaring sunlight. Put it in a shade so that it will not be cooked by the intense heat.</li>
<li>During the first week, expose the plant to morning sun for about 2 hours</li>
<li>During the second week, put it in the morning sun for 4 hours..</li>
<li>During the 3rd week, slowly exposed it to direct hot sun for about 2 hours</li>
<li>Keep watering and fertilising the plant as normal, making sure that the soil is not water clogged</li>
<li>Throw away any fallen leaves as this can promote fungal growth</li>
</ol>Woala... I should have a beautiful rose to take the challenge of the lowland in 4 weeks time. Cant wait for it to happen...<br />
<br />
I shall be updating on this rose from time to time...zarahimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09911058081908386209noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192575224510134361.post-48946981880050844682011-05-18T02:28:00.000-07:002011-05-18T02:28:00.158-07:00How cruel....!!!Look at these...How can they be so cruel....!!! <br />
<br />
I spend days and night hoping to have a beautiful rose bush.. but when I see this.........<br />
What can I say...they are just animals/pest/insects that don't have brains like us...so I have to bear with them...But I have to do something fast to eliminate these intruders...<br />

And many many more that I have lost counts... This I suspected is the work of the grasshopper. I am yet to sit down quietly in the garden to hunt for them....<br />
<br />
I read somewhere that the only way to get rid of the grasshoppers is to catch and kill them... but I don't think I have the heart to do that. I will probably catch them, put them in a plastic container and dispose them far far away from my place...<br />
<br />
And to me this is a tedious job, much more complicated than spraying fungicide or pesticide....Imagine I have to sneak quietly in between the rose thorns to catch them... I don't know whether it's best to do this at night or during the day. Honestly, I have not seen any of them during the day...zarahimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09911058081908386209noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192575224510134361.post-52746843908908192782011-05-17T23:32:00.000-07:002011-05-18T07:43:13.076-07:00Tinie..Winie..Little Minis...<ol style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">The problem of growing these minis are...they get smaller and smaller in size as the days gone by.

<br />
It's ok... there's always something I can do.. <br />
<br />
Today,for example, I spent a few hours in the rain trying to tidy up the drain next to my small koi pond. It's interesting to play in the rain and having a good shower while the rain do it's part to wash the messy drain...<br />
<br />
<br />
Around 11 am.. the sun is shining bright as ever and I took some pictures of my beautiful blooms..<br />

My roses seems to be healthier despite the rain. Maybe roses like showers as well. I think it's true because the rain can help to get rid of the pests..<br />

<br />
In hot Asian Countries, roses seems to be rare cultivations because we cannot get them to grow beautifully, except in the highlands. The flowers are smaller and the colours are not as vibrant as in the highlands... <br />
<br />
Here I want to share with you some of my beautiful roses which have been with me for about a year...<br />
<br />
My favourite..<br />

BUT<br />
<br />
It's so expensive to buy cut roses here...AND<br />
<br />
I also wish someone will give me roses but I suppose this will remain a dream... SO<br />
<br />
I am going to plant roses instead.. just started and I am enjoying every minute of it..<br />
<br />
I get my rose cuttings from friends or sometimes I buy small roses from a nursery nearby..<br />
<br />
I went through the hardship and frustration of seeing my roses wilting due to the hot climate, the diseases and the lack of enthusiasm after each failures..AND..<br />
<br />
I learned some tricks to make the roses grow better..<br />
1) Pour the aquarium or koi pond water to the roses everyday..<br />
2) Put shrimps or fish cutlet in the soil..<br />
3) Never pour water onto the buds as this will not make the rose bloom properly..<br />
<br />
This is my one of my first roses...which I planted about a year ago....<br />
<br />
Then I had a couple more which I will share with you later..<br />

I am trying to have more species with me.. but it's so expansive to buy them from the nursery..zarahimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09911058081908386209noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6192575224510134361.post-38743400528982825582011-05-02T00:55:00.000-07:002011-05-02T01:08:17.215-07:00A Journey To My New Garden...Imagine the beauty of your everyday life..<br />
Peaceful..no worries.. no pains.. no traffic jams.. no bills to settle..everything is just the way you want it to be..<br />
<br />
But can this be a reality? Unfortunately not.. not now anyway..!!<br />
<br />
However it's nice to imagine.....<br />
<br />
I always imagine myself to be in a no man's land.. wondering and searching for that beautiful life.. slowly.. step by step I walk..and I enjoy every minute I spent there.. looking at the the beauty of the things that pass by..<br />
<br />
Gifts from our Creator..<br />
<br />
And the jouney has no limit.. it goes on and on and on... <br />
<br />
I suppose, everyone, at some point in their life have this fantasy ... but it varies from person to person..depending on your way of life..<br />
<br />
Just take a look at these two people... <br />
<br />

I am just wondering where they are going and what they are up to.. I suppose they know what they are looking for and for every steps that they make.. there is a purpose to it, no matter how long and difficult the journey is..<br />
<br />
So.. life is a journey and my journey this time is to have a rose garden..and I am going to write about my experience growing roses in a hot tropical climate...<br />
<br />
It's going to be hard but for as long as I believe in yourself.. I will definitely reach somewhere..zarahimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09911058081908386209noreply@blogger.com1
