This is the season to show some tomato love. Tomato recipes aside, you can grow this cherry beauties nice and fast before the winter chill sets in. Just toss over some seeds in sunlit soil and keep the soil moist. That’s it. Seriously! No big post.
But for doing it right and blogging it nice, here are some tips and tricks on growing bunches of cherry tomatoes, just about anywhere.
This is a test post. Can one imagine the festival of Dasara or Vijayadashmi without bright yellow-orange coloured flowers of marigold? Definitely not, but this year people may have to pay more for these golden flowers as due to reduced production, prices of these flowers are likely to go high.

Did born a flower in purple hue
that stole a tint from the fiery red
and bit of dew from the moist blue
Lone Beauty in Purple - Chrysanthemum
What a time of the year and season it is! Purple flowers, purple petals, purple blurs, purple sharps, purple purple. This world seems to have come alive in shades of purple, lavender, lilac, pale pink, magenta and more.
Nature has blessed us with lavenders, chrysanthemums, pansies, phlox, violets, asters, jacarandas and so many crazy permutations and combinations of purple on earth that laugh and breathe. Look in your garden, take a walk down any lane, go window shopping or simply go to your kichen… the world is suddenly bursting with purple.
Such happiness comes in clusters - Purple Jacarandas
Think of that omnipresent brinjal, lascivious pomegranate, clusters of jacaranda, window dressed mannequins, artworks, billboards, flora, books, to even food, this color is omnipresent. What a season this is…. pleasurably purple.
Another bunch of happiness with a funny name - Blue Billy Goat Weed
This is one color I have seldom used in my life, wardrobe and palatte. But now things are seemingly different for there is so much purple in the malls, on walls and wherever your eyes fall.
Purple, the color of good judgment, higher consciousness, spirituality, royalty, mysticism, sacredness, and divine energy, is no longer hard to miss or ignore.
See through me - Purple Petunias
Stressed? Go lavender
Romantic? Try Wisteria
Exotic? How about purple
Dress to Impress? Play purple
Meditate? Purple again
Things get better with other colors around!
This is the month for enjoying this color. So go ahead… grab your purple beret, dab on lavender scent, pick up a purple book, or load your paint brush. This color seems to rule for some reason.
What do you really feel when you see the color purple? Try and see what it does to you when you indulge in it.

This color seems to augur the good times that are about to come. So brace up!
Birds have borne the worst brunt of our times. From lack of green cover, decrease in food availability, climatic changes, to cell phone tower radiations, it is no surprise that they are disappearing at an alarming rate, in large numbers and in variety of species. We have now reached a stage where we scream in delight if we spot the little sparrow outside the city limits.
Birds are indicators of the environment.
If they are in trouble,
we know we’ll soon be in trouble.

Make your own rustic bird feeder – Click on the image for the tutorial
I live in soon-to-be-extinct-place where there are few birds left. Apart from crows and eagles, I get to see sparrows, humming birds, sun birds, cuckoo, and many that I don’t identify. Mornings bring in the ubiquitous chirps and flutter, thanks to few green trees and shrubs around.
And here is my attempt to make a simple bird feeder that is easy to fill, clean and offers a great view of the lovely little creatures.
Green Gift of Life for your Loved Ones
Gifting season is coming soon. Festival after festival, occasion after occasion, there are plenty of good times waiting to happen to everyone. This is the time when you start to budget for the holiday season. And this is also the time for us to recap green gifting options.
Eco-consciousness is serious business for every Government, company, association, community or individual. One can never emphasize much on the value of green gifts, handmade gifts, recycled gifts and and more… as everyone is more or less trying to turn ecofriendly in their individual capacities. People are changing but the pace is not quite enough to reverse the damage we have already unleashed on our planet. But we must try true.
Plants always top as gifts for someone who love nature. These living gifts, in right hands grow, bloom and blossom into lifelong companions. They keep reminding you of the love that lives, the love that grows and the love that will be shared for years to come. There is never a case of oh! not another one! with plant gifts.
Here is a quick visual step-by-step tutorial on making this simple green gift of plant which work great for any occasion such as birthday, wedding, family parties, thank-yous, etc.
