Elegant Tiny Red Flowers of Mine
This is a nice photo I took of one of the flowers of the garden. I am a little mellowed out around the edges. It rained a bit, which made things easy. I replanted one of the flowers. It ended up being a real issue. I noticed that after removing it, the other plants were doing better. I suppose it was syphoning liquids from the other plants. I guess it was a bad flower. It looks like it is dying a bit in the place were I replanted. I wanted to try replanting. It was bothering mom where it was...
Church Gardens in Colombia
This is quite the cute little photo I took in the garden. It has been years since I traveled out of the country. Then again, I am just exaggerating a little. I want to stay home a bit and work in the gardens. I am waiting for the rose to grow. It is looking really nice inside her bud. It is keeping us in suspense. Our garden has plenty of green and trees. The only thing that is missing are flowers. Well, we do have two flowering trees. Most of the flowers are tiny orange ones. They are good for...
My Garden Flowers
Just as I said before, I wanted to have a garden I would enjoy photographing. This is just some of the photos I took. They feature all the best looking plants I planted. There was another one too.

You can tell by how much roots cover the pot. If the plant has covered its entire container, it means that the plant is healthy. You can just eyeball it...
Plants in My Garden
Yesterday, I was hanging out in my garden. I do not like to visit often because of the bugs. When I was bathing, I noticed a couple of bites on my leg. I have what they call mosquito skin. Those little creatures, how they nib and bite. Anyhow, the garden has been developing rather nicely. We have a little plant nursery. Nothing was growing last year, it was real depressing. I managed to get something to start developing when I putted egg shells. They were key to keeping the snails away. The snails eat the plants. Normally people poison them....
On the Process
It is tradition among writers to talk about Process. Since I am more or less a writer, I decided to give you my two cents on the matter. Writers today often talk about writer's block. They sit down facing the keyboard and nothing comes out. The fact that I am writing to you daily is apparently a miracle. I cannot say that I do have an easy time writing per say. It is years of practice, one blog, one essay, one poem at a time. Eventually, it piles up and you no longer have a hard time writing. Even when...
