Gardening in an apartment 30 September 2012

Some flower buds finally grew on the cherry tomato plants! :) It was almost 3 months since we planted it from the seeds.



It grew to about 3 feet high. Next to the cherry tomato plant is sweet basil. We have harvested it for making pesto and the leaves grow again. :)

 We are constantly suprised by the tiny plants grown out from the compost soil. 
I think it is a pumpkin seedlings. We don't have enough space for a pumpkin to grow. 


Mini composting bin. 

We are so thrilled to find the cherry tomato plant is fruiting after almost 4 months!

When it turned red, we were jumping with joy! 

Spring onion is the easiest to plant. :)

The pandan is beginning to grow. 
It was almost dead after we brought it back from R's home, and was left with a few leaves.
