Seasonal Gardens Without Seasons

Where I stay, there are no apparent seasons.

Sometimes it rains, sometimes it is hot and dry.
Basically, the weather is almost the same throughout the year, usually ranging from 25 to 37 degree Celsius.

I used to think our weather is considered hot until I hear of the heat waves reports in many places recently.
I think I better appreciate our moderate weather in Malaysia.

Where you see the red firecracker plant above is where I used to grow tall, spiky agave plants.

Where you see the white stones on the ground now is where I had my lawn.

I got bored with spiky plants and so much green that I have changed the look of my garden.

I and am now enjoying the colour of snow.

I love the soft droopy look of many of these plants.

They seem to have a COOL and calming effect.

When I'm in the mood for Autumn, I can change the colours of the pebbles to brown and remove some leaves...

On a more serious note, I love the varied colours of Autumn.

That must be the most beautiful season.

Forget about Autumn for now.
Let's look at HOT Summer below!

This is a photo taken 2 years ago showing the same wall.

Spiky plants are from left to right, top to bottom.

They consisted of aloe vera, snake plants and agave plants.

This place looks very HOT to me.

As our taste change, our gardens evolve and even the look on our blogs go through modification.

I enjoy these changes.

Gardening without seasons need not be boring.

To create a cooler looking garden, I've made the following few changes.

- Spiky plants are replaced by droopy plants. 

- The lawn is replaced with white stones.

- White flowers overshadow bright coloured flowers.

Recently I created a new garden bed and transplanted some of my bushy plants there.

The dogs thought the bushes were in the way and kept digging them up.

Obviously, these plants suffered more than just transplanting shock.

The side effect is some pretty wintry look which the dragonflies seem attracted to.

Dried up plants with white background have enhanced the cool wintry garden look.

Seasonal gardens without seasons.

How much more fun can gardening get?

This is one of the dragonflies that frequent my garden.

Why?

There must be a lot of food here.

Damselflies don't come here though they don't live very far away.

They hang around the watershed which is about 150m from here.

Damselflies are similar to dragonflies but smaller, slimmer and weaker.
Their eyes which are separated reminds me of the praying mantis and also Sid of Ice Age.

Unlike the dragon flies, they fold their wings up over their back.

There were many damselflies but I only managed to capture a blue and a black one after getting my shoes all muddy and wet.

Comparatively, dragonflies are a lot more cooperative during photo shooting. 

They stay on dry ground and keep still.

Except for the first photo, the rest were found at the Watershed after the Heron flew off.
