The Urban Gardener: October 2013

http://the-urban-gardener.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html

Sunday, October 27, 2013. Growing food for my table. I'm a happy gardener these days. All the hard work in the vegetable garden has paid off and my table is loaded with the fruits and vegetables we grew. Which is a real relief when I read in the papers about the spiraling prices. We usually grow a lot of veggies. I've never seen anything like it in all the years that I've been farming. And that too, at the start of the harvest before the plants came into their full yielding potential. It looks even prett...

The Urban Gardener: Summer in the garden

http://the-urban-gardener.blogspot.com/2014/05/summer-in-garden.html

Thursday, May 15, 2014. Summer in the garden. Summer is crackling like a seething fire-cracker now, isn't it? Not my favourite time of the year. But then, I could make excuses for the spectacular blooms on almost every tree and in my garden. It all started with the Red Silk Cotton bursting into bloom one day . Gangly, thorny, leafless branches sprouting massive red blooms almost as if by spontaneous combustion! And out sprang Spring! The nectar-loving birds were ecstatic! And the Yellow Copper Pod trees !

The Urban Gardener: June 2014

http://the-urban-gardener.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Friday, June 27, 2014. Song of the bird-bath. Before I start on my monsoon photos, here's one last look at something that sings of Summer . my bird-bath. Do you remember the most frequented area in my garden (by the birds, I mean)? It has been seeing feathered traffic like never before all summer long! This Red Vented Bulbul had the time of his life puffing out his feathers and splashing so the water could reach and drench each and every part of his body. Have you heard it. Posted by Sunita Mohan. And I ...

The Urban Gardener: Grow vegetables for the flowers

http://the-urban-gardener.blogspot.com/2014/10/grow-vegetables-for-flowers.html

Thursday, October 23, 2014. Grow vegetables for the flowers. When was the last time that you looked at a vegetable plant and sighed in delight over its blooms? Er did you ever notice the blooms? For instance, this okra bloom. The way the okra (ladies fingers / bhendi) blooms pale golden and so prolifically, especially in the tropics, could easily make it a favourite. Here's a closer look. Now do you see what I mean? This one is so very eye-catching, isn't it? But just look at it. Now picture a canopy...

Chai 'n Spice: November 2009

http://chai-n-spice.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

November 16, 2009. The Great Wall of Mumbai. Yesterday I drove by the Tulsi Pipe Road from Mahim to Lower Parel and was blown away by the graffiti art on what has now been dubbed the Great Wall of Mumbai. It has totally transformed the dirty, drab wall along the Western Railway line until it is one of the most interesting, vibrantly colourful pieces of public property I've seen in a very long time. Can you believe this is in Mumbai? And what was once the receptacle of. This little boy was sitting near th...

Chai 'n Spice: September 2009

http://chai-n-spice.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html

September 27, 2009. Happy birthday, Google! I did a double-take when I dropped by the Google site today. Something was not quite right. And then I saw it! Somebody had not done the proofreading right, I thought. And giggled a little to think of such a massive mistake. one tiny mis-spelling, one huge red face for someone. Then I moved the mouse over it and found out that I should be laughing at myself instead. Someone at Google is very clever. That's their way of announcing that Google is 11! Sister-in-la...
