It is a lovely garden, so many varieties of plants. Most of the plants seem to be in pots, or bags. Is it on the terrace ?
I would like to know more about the garden.

Thanks for those lovely pics.

Your friend's garden must be very big and beautiful with such gorgeous blooms and vegetables! I'm staying in a high rise apartment with no garden or potted plants except for the small pot of Money Plant next to the kitchen sink! Some of my neighbours have potted plants along the main corridor and I love to check out their flowers, just to photographed them.

A very happy New Year Krishna. I never had any idea about ginger flowers. All the flowers look good. Interesting the flowers of the ladies' finger plant resemble something which gets grown in fences (velis).
