I'm happy that spring is here, sun is rising early though it is bit chilly here with temperature at night going down to 36 degree F. <br /><br />Casa Mariposa: thank you for the information :-). I don't know what that plant is and it does not get bigger - it has reached its maximum height and will produce only one bright red flower. That's it. <br /><br />HolleyGarden: I agree that we should all enjoy nature. I love nature. Actually, I would have been glad if the snake stayed in my garden and kill all the unwanted pests. It is a harmless, non-poisonous snake. <br /><br />PerthDailyPhoto: the snake is not at all scary like the ones you have in Australia :-). It is non-venemous and lives on bugs and insects. <br /><br />Bridget: I actually like snake; they are very fascinating creature to me :-). I told you already in your website that I don't have any secret. <br /><br />Liz: it could be some kind of special hosta. Don't know. I didn't plant it; the previous owner of the house must have planted it. <br /><br />Malay-Kadazan Girl: Thank You :-). <br /><br />Julie: I am grateful that I have inspired you to enjoy the garden :-). Thank You :-). <br /><br />Malay-Kadazan: You are most welcome; it was one of the simplest dish that we make. <br /><br />OrganicGardenDreams (Christina): my roses are growing vigorously as well :-). <br /><br />Bakingbarb: I don't know what the plant is as I didn't plant. Some previous owner of the house planted it. It doesn't grow any much bigger.KLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06737654325235566310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737293877559899983.post-72788587119122483032012-04-21T17:32:13.401-04:002012-04-21T17:32:13.401-04:00Your garden is looking quite well including the ve...Your garden is looking quite well including the veggies.

I'd love to know what the plant next to the snake picture looks like when it's grown! Great leaves! :o) Digging out mature plans can be challenging but sometimes it's easier than it looks. The roots of the red salvia weren't super deep and they popped right up. I amend my soil heavily with a rich local compost made from leaves. It fluffs up the soil so it's easier to dig in and the roots don't have to go as far to reach the nutrients they need.Casa Mariposahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16647089868277238456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737293877559899983.post-1126074032358622242012-04-04T18:20:19.395-04:002012-04-04T18:20:19.395-04:00Looks like you've been very busy indeed but gr...Looks like you've been very busy indeed but great to see so much plant activity in your garden.
