| The exceedingly 'long' ladyfinger/okra! |
 |
| The large sunflower was one of the triplets. At the back of its huge head, were two of its siblings. |
 |
| The unopened Zinnia! |
 |
| Ladybird feasting on the aphids! |
 |
| Cherry tomatoes! |
 |
| Look at who was feasting on my cherry tomatoes! Death to them all! :P |
 |
| Capsicums! I was surprised as I thought they had died in the freak storm. :) |
 |
| This is my first time planting pumpkin. And I was so surprised that this too survived the storm. This is the male flower. |
 |
| This is the female. |
 |
| I helped the pumpkin to have 'sex'. I was afraid that the ants and insects would not be 'helpful' enough in transferring the pollen from the male to the female. |
 |
| Look at how 'saturated' the female is with the male's pollen. |
 |
| This was the 2nd male flower which I used. There was some polygamy going on. I had to make sure 'she got impregnated'! HAHAHA! |
 |
| I even clipped the flower closed to make sure the pollen stayed intact in the female! |
 |
| Plenty of stink bugs who were busy mating! |
 |
| The third tomato plant is fruiting. |
 |
| Oleander Hawk caterpillar! Joel calls this as HIS 'CATTER-PIE-LEE' pet! Oh my! His pet! HAHA! |
 |
| Okras! |
 |
| Another harvest of cherry tomatoes. The yellow plate in the background is filled with kitchen waste which will be turned into compost. |
