Why!!!

First of all, I would like to apologize for not visiting all your blogs these few weeks! I'm not being a very good bloggie friend! I'm ashamed to admit that I am hiding myself in self-pity as far as my garden is concerned. I am really disappointed at how my plants turned out. Two of my favourite plants that was growing really well, suddenly decided to stop growing, for whatever reasons, I do not know.

Two Long Beans plants, back in May

Beautiful, long beans growing 

I only managed to harvest about a dozen beans before....

Both plants dried up!  Sudden, isn't it?
I was so disappointed and upset that it took me two weeks later before I could bring myself to clear this!

The place is now vacant, waiting for the next occupant! It was so disappointing, plants do die in the end, but I only had about a dozen beans! Strange isn't it?

Next, my prized tomatoes, the one plant (besides chilli)  that I have never succeeded in growing until now!

I think these tomatoes are just beautiful! Their shape is long and I do not know the name of this tomato.
I just planted the seeds from some cherry tomatoes that I ate.

These tomaotes are really juicy, crunchy and sweet, really delicious! These are from one plant, which only yields about two dozen tomatoes. The plant is in the "process" of drying up now! This plant is in a pot at my back kitchen garden. Originally, I have six of these plants, five of which I planted in pots at my front garden, have all wilted and died after hundreds of flowers, but no fruits!

The thought about planting these tomatoes again really drains me out! These plants are huge and need lots of space and supports. So I'll be trying some other varieties which my sister gave me (she bought it from UK). which will not need any supports and suitable for container growing. Crossing my fingers that these will germinate! Otherwise, I'll just keep on growing kangkung and spring onions, at least I have constant supply from these two faithful veggies!

Happy Gardening!
