Hello everyone! I found some flowers at the garden recently. They had a beautiful purple colour. The weird thing is, no one planted it. It just started growing itself. I'm guessing that it was the birds doing the work of nature they're assigned of. I often see them flying around in the yard even when there are people.
We only visit this garden once a week or so. So it was a surprise to see this plant all bloomed up suddenly out of nowhere. My mother told me that it is a forest plant but I did look it up. I found that it has called senduduk in Malay here. Seems like it also has medicinal properties and people use them for health.
Please forgive me for taking a blurry picture. I couldn't see properly due to the blinding sunlight. This is the berry that was in the plant. I figured that it will stain our skin if we get contact with it.
Here are some close ups of the flowers.
Can you see the ants walking on the flower. I found some of them and there were different types, ranging from little ones to large ants. I stepped away after taking pictures because I got bitten by an insect during one of the trips. It was swollen to the size of a flattened fist.
Thank you for dropping by and I hope that you have a beautiful day ahead!
