We hope she likes this environment enough to give a fruit. Attached instruction is read that banana leaves fall after another to grow up. However, it is a bit shocking to find out fallen one on the floor just over a night. We would try to be used to her custom.
… and suddenly disappeared. He showed a good appetite last night — it seemed that he had survived pretending to be a part of avocado in daytime. However, the more he eats, the more he exposes himself to bird’s eyes. A big contradiction in a small life, isn’t it?
Our avocado has a friend. It was first in the size of one’s finger nail, while has grown almost ten times as big as just a few days before. It kept this camouflage as a stalk among leaves even when watered. Amazing power of nature.
Good disguise
We heard Tora-chan’s voice in the morning. Rushed outdoors, we found her looking exhausted and scared. However, Mei-Shun was too slow to feed her who ran away from our garden in a second. Oh, such a cold nature … she might have lost in a territory fight. However, if we protect her to see Dr. O, it would mean to deprive her of the right and freedom she had won so far.
Wink!
Today would be the last to have this torrid weather, we heard. Growling wind has been so strong that our cucumber vines were all blown down on the ground. Only one among three babies stays alive. Are you edible? Shin tried a bite, said that it tasted sour. Even kappa living in Ushiku Pond would not like you …
… with a mushroom. Maybe because of rainy weather, our pot plants sometimes accompany this light-yellow one in the morning. Never looks tasty, removed immediately.
avocado, grapefruit …
uninvited
Our roof garden now has 5 mini-tomatoes. A little green mantis lives there. When we water them, he jumps out of the pod, run into another one. He is too quick to take a photo — hey, friend, why don’t you stay on the fruit? It would give us more charming shots.
Seeing mild sunshine in the morning, Mei-Shun was happy to hang futon bed mats and blankets. And in the afternoon, it suddenly started. Cold wind blew into our area. Raindrops followed to change into a storm immediately. This is what we call “guerrilla rainfall”, maybe because nobody can expect place and time of their attack.
Mei-Shun went to Tokyo for a lecture and test to keep a certificate necessary in her job. And today has the summer solstice, yet dark clouds prevented us from seeing the latest sunset of this year. As always, we have to say — it comes in the middle of rainy season. A little bit lonely.
Amazing. How many grapefruit seeds did Mei-Shun plant? They took 2 weeks more to come out than the first one. Oh, you are twins. Would you like more space? And you are too close to your eldest sister — do we have to remove such little, cute ones?
