    Default My forest treasures at home

    Mixture of my favorite plants I have collected such as Wisteria, Alocasia, Ferns, Orchids, Hoya, Dischidia, Medinilla, etc...

    Some of my plants are sick because of El Niño phenomenon, scorch and dry, and others are attacked by orchid weevils.

    Nice 'jungle' Decoy. I'm sure all those plants must have helped in providing cool and humidity during the El Nino. Beautiful set-up.

    @Ron - Water is plenty here in Cagayan de Oro City but our problem is rotating brownouts happening everyday seriously damaging household electronic devices.

    During the last 2 months, I keep them watering everyday because whenever it is windy it dries out the garden leaving wind burnt leaves and flower buds.

    But at this time, it rains everyday afternoon and night and sometimes at dawn.
