		<description>Tulips in SG? I never thought it would grow in SG...hmm..I might pass some to my Mum when I&#039;m back there...

The herbs I&#039;ve growing are growing so well...well so far anyway. I do hate getting blisters from gardening especially all that dirt in my nails...haha...but I do have to pull my socks up and get in there when we landscape the garden this year...we&#039;re doing everything ourselves to keep the cost down...yikes!!?!!</description>

		<description>Hi Reeta,

My mom always wanted a garden. At her main residence, there&#039;s a senior citizen&#039;s corner with a big patch of grass next to the block.  She just sets down 10 pots of flora plants there.  U can see that the group who assembles there every evening were glad to share this hobby.  I was just as glad that the inspector didnt write out a fine for the &quot;illegal&quot; flora.  He did make my mom understand abt keeping it free of mossies.

My mom rotates her stay at 3 other siblings of mine n at each residence, pots of plants with little fruits starts to accumulate along the corridor, but it was such a welcome sight.  Indoors, she has the tulips I brought to SG for her to plant from bulbs.  I hv the feeling that she is the only one with tulips in the whole of SG ??  Neighbours n friends do drop by to admire them.

In NL, I too had the chore of tending to a garden.  It&#039;s more my hubby&#039;s eden than mine ;-o  It&#039;s alot of work, weeding n pruning during spring till autumn.  I dislike getting blisters from pulling those tenacious weeds - ugh !

Am glad that ur herbs r thriving.  It never happened with my lot *sob*  I hv tried indoor pots (they need the rite temp) but the multitude of bugs just ate them up b4 they had a chance to bear fruits (was 4 bell pepper plant) *sigh*</description>

		<description>Yeah we got a long pot, drilled small holes beneath it and bought a matching drainage plate which we place underneath the pot. The plate can be removed and you can easily clean and wipe it down regularly. To be honest, there isn&#039;t much drainage to be worried about...I hardly get any...it gets all soaked up.</description>

		<description>Wife has been wanting to get a pot like yours to put up on the window ledges. Problem is - our windows doesn&#039;t come with a ledge. LOL. 

Will definitely get one if I can figure out how to drain the pot off. Unlike back home, there&#039;s not much of a problem with insects so that&#039;s not too bad, is it?</description>
