As I was walking around the garden, I notice the Curry plant that was given to us in a bad condition has just started to recover after four months. It was struggling to survive during the hot summer but with the weather cooling down it has now started giving young leaves.
My Aloe Vera plants have taken over half of the garden bed. They are amazing plants and are doing well all year long giving us nice leaves and gel for eating.
Below is one of the two last chokos I left aside for propagation in Spring. They have grown up so big.
