Look What You Made Me Do

I really wonder if the maidenhair fern (Adiantum sp. - Peruvianum???) really died this time cos putting in sphagnum moss did nothing. As a lsat resort, I'm putting her in Seramis clay granules with very diluted nutrient water (Seramis vitalnahrung) in a makeshift pots with the plastic food bowl.  I figured I won't dry her out this way this time. I'm very reluctant to buy a new one here because I only see the very tiny-leafed. What we have in Malaysia are of the size that I prefer. 
What's left of her. Roots were so brittle and black.

While potting I did notice a tiny clump of healthier(?) roots.

I thought I was going to lose P. Hastatum (Helena) as her leaves are turning yellow since last week and few days ago, they dropped but a new leaf unfurled. Today I noticed two new root nodes.


I snapped one of the juvenile leaves of P. squamiferum (Squami) when I watered her. Sigh.

Meanwhile, I have a new yellow Crocus flowering. I should get some fence for these. 

A couple of tulips are pushing out their flower buds too.


I didn't plant anything on this part of the yard and it appeared some bulb plants are growing.

Outdoor Game

The crocus, daffodil and tulips I put onto ground in the autumn have sprouted (although not all of them)!


These one were covered by leaves the husband swept.

The yellow mums husband bought came back to life after what I thought to be an early demise. 

The hydrangeas.

This one always gets abused by Odyssey. From time to time, I see her branches broken off. Stupid Odyssey likes to re-landscape the yard.

The chives too seem to be alive again. I thought it was an annual so I collected the seeds. Stupid me.
