OUR GARDEN

December 2010  

It was December but the garden was in full bloom. There were different kinds of flowering plants, fruit bearing trees, some root crops and vegetables. These were planted by our eldest sister who has a green thumb and a habit of asking for cuttings from friendly neighbors in our community.

The photos I took when I went to my home town to visit my mother and sisters.
