Vertical Garden.

Green Wall

The first thing that strikes most people visiting our house is the vertical garden. A long time will pass before the orchids are able to spread out to cover that wall completely. By that time the wines would have fully obstructed the view and passers by will not be able to see the flowers when they bloom.

Vertical gardens are sometimes known as a green wall. There is no wall where the wines grow so let’s just call it a horizontally challenged garden.

Home with in a home.

Orchids and Munias

It’s not a home away from home about a home with in a home. This nest was built by a Scaly Breasted Munia at our new house. The reason that this blog has been neglected in recent times is because it took a little while for us to settle in after moving here on the 5th of June. The Orchid bush in which the nest was built is part of my vertical garden. Note the patches of paint on some of the leaves.
