The garden plot

Finally we found time to visit a nursery today. One of Mama Tok's friend told her of one nursery situated along the road to Semenyih from Bangi. So Jo and myself went there with her to get some plants. Initially we don't have any specific plants in mind but by the time for us to go from that shop, our Honda Stream is beginning to look more like a moving jungle. I bought three types of 'limau', a mango tree and four bags of fertile soil. Jo bought one indoor plant. Mama Tok bought 'kesum', 'terung', 'limau kasturi', two bags of soil and five bags of agrosoil. The kind worker at the nursery even gave us four pineapple plants, some 'cili padi' and another plant which name escapes me. And it only costs us RM60, really unbelievable. When we arrived at Mama Tok's house, she gave one more indoor plant to Jo. 

Now to wait for the weekend to start life as an urban gardener.
