What is your thought on this?

 I wish that we also plant fruits and vegetations in all Tshwane University of Technology campus. I know that  this will help students who are broke during the course of the month. They will be able to eat something healthy during harvest season. some students face hunger and with such an  initiative, student will  not worry about that much. 

Food is becoming costly on a daily basis, let us all start practicing small scale farming and go back  to the good old days of bartering ( the exchange of goods and services.

CLIVIA


 CLIVIA
  also known  as Bush Lily is one of our more famous plants in South Africa.
It is resistant to pests and diseases and they are quiet costly. It is a nice name to give to a baby girl.

 French Lavender has positive effects on wounds and I personally think they look amazing with that purple colour on top. With a lifespan of 4-5 years.

Say hello to "Aloe vera". Don't be fooled by its beautiful pattern, it is well known for treating constipation, helps heal minor wounds and has a protective effect on the skin.

I shot this picture at Shaka residents. Their garden is extremely fascinating and create a peaceful moment for students.

EARTH IS ART


 Plants enhances the look of an environment. If your house looks ugly, it's because you don't have a Lawn to Mown.

Have a garden and see how peaceful your mind will be.

MADAGASCAR PALM

DO NOT DARE STICK YOUR FINGERS TO ONE OF THIS AESTHETIC PALM TREES.

They sting harder than a sting bee . Inside the cream  white vase is a Madagascar palm tree. apparently, I learned that it should be watered once in every 2 years. It clearly shows that it can survive the desert. Male and Female standing side by side.

Sago Palm

 

NOTE : Poisonous to humans and animals
must have a permit to own one of these palms.

The Sago Palm in the black vase is an iconic  type of a flower which brought discoveries to my knowledge.  I recently found out that there are two types of it. A female and a male. I couldn't believe it , finding out plants have genders.
