How Does Your Garden Grow

An old nursery rhyme :

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,

How does your garden grow?

With cockle shells and silver bells

And pretty maids all in a row

Now localise it a bit :

Puteri, Puteri, not so contrary,

How does your garden grow?

............. urgh!

(IT'S NOT GROWING AT ALL, AT ALL!)

The good ones first (and they are NOT from my garden) :

All the above images are from Kak Ton's garden. So jealous ma...

And now the depressing ones ... oh my, HELP! From my all-in-a-row garden :

How come they are not loaded? I do water them, add fertilizers fortnightly, expose them to a lot of sunshine. BUT what's not quite right? I KNOW! They miss their Mummy-cum-Nurse who is sitting quietly in far-away Kuantan . . . . . Come home Mummy, we miss you!
