Violets are blue
This post has got nothing to do with baking or cooking. Now, unless you like gardening and flowers, you can skip this posting ;)
I was pleasantly surprised when I watered my plants this morning. A flower bud has sprout out from my pot of african violet!!! I was so happy! This plant has stopped blooming ever since the first set of flowers were gone. The plant has been on my window sill for many months...and I must confess, I really didn't give it much attention or care. I just water it once or twice a week, without even giving it any fertiliser. It is really difficult to grow violets in this kind of weather in Singapore. I used to own several pots of violets while I was still working. I keep my plants in the office as they grow better in air-con environment.
I'm not sure whether it was a pure coincident...as I posted some photos of my "past" plants in flickr.com just a couple of days ago...including a photo of this pot.
Can you see the flower bud?

A closer look at the flower bud:
This was taken when I first bought this plant home, it was in full bloom then:
I hope I could find my green fingers back real soon!
