curry leaves

once upon a time, in my garden here a huge curry leaf plant grew. but when i left my house and went away the plant was 'consumed' by a parasitic creeper. when i returned this time i got this plant in a pot and om prakash put it in the soil. now finally i see it has taken root and you can see this as well.

an august view

grass is now green and everywhere i see the greens...the fence is looking greener, so is malati, tachoma and the ficus trees...and this view is just a trick in the garden. am loving the idea of using my imagination to shoot the house from various angles and positions.

green net

this year i finally put this green net on a part of the driveway to save the plants from the harsh sun. on another side of the house too- near the front lawn i put this net, but it was not done so firmly with support of the bamboo.

garden view

this is a view of the garden from the living room. naturally from behind the iron fortress. i just thought i would put it here for the sake of it...not that it looks any nicer from behind the rods of iron!

mowed grass

dogs love the smell of freshly mowed grass. each one of them has their own views about the matter and here i catch them one evening...

verdant august

this month, with intermittent rains, this is how one part of the garden is looking...green and curtain like. I am so relieved that finally the empty, bare grills of the house are going to be covered by a curtain of the greens. this view is of the north side of the house, what you see here is the living room windows and the enclosed area in the garden on the north side. in this space i was hoping to grow perennial plants and for now tis hibiscus, juniper, bougainvillea, basil, curry-leaves and ficus growing of at least two varieties. oh yes! one more creeper whose name is not known to me.

गार्डन creeper

यह टेकोमा की बेल है। जब मैं अक्टूबर में यहाँ आई थी तब पूरी लोहे की रेलिंग खाली थी। आजकल यह काफ़ी फैल गई है और देखिये कैसी दिख रही है। इस फोटो मैं रागा उसके sआमने खड़ी हुई है। इस पर संतरे रंग के फूल भी खिल रहे है, इन दिनों में।
