Default A glimpse of my garden.

My friends who visited my place always comment that they are entering Amazon jungle. I think subconsiously along the years I made it that way! Attached here is a shot I took this afternoon. It was cloudy at that time. So.....I would like to know what do you guys think. Does it really looks like a jungle??????????

Thank you guys for your compliments.
I like your comment plantlover....only brighter! That's true.

Casey, as like any other place where there are dark scheluded area, I would be lying if I say there are no mosquitos. I do carry out fogging from time to time especially during rainy season. This will help controlling the mozzy population.

Andy, sorry for the late feedback as I have been busy with work and setting up my planted tank (into aquascaping as a slight diversion )! Your garden looks like it was sliced out of some wild habitat and then reassembled according to taste. I would really like to visit it one day and relive the experience. Overall it's a marvellous piece of work, Andy! Great job!!

I had the opportunity together with Shawn last year during the CP competition to visit Andy's place. It is like you are entering into a different world once the gates to his house is open. It's like you are entering into a different portal or world. My vocabulary was suddenly limited to "Wow!", "Ahhh"...

Hi gbarge,

Everything have change since....... actually a vertical/hanging garden is in the making. Here's some photos taken last week. Still far from completion but the atmosphere is there. Same location.
Enjoy!
