Plant a tree
Posted by: Fats in: Fats, Vitamins & Minerals > What and Why
Today is tree-planting day. Some 2 million people are expected to plant trees (as well as ornamental plants) along national roads all across the country. One of the intentions was to have more trees to help reduce air pollution.
Since there’s hardly any space here for trees, maybe I can just plant some more labuyo, chilli pepper plants. Although the ones I planted (as well as the kapok and evening flower seeds) a week ago still show no signs of sprouting. I guess it’s not the season for planting yet. So maybe it’s not a good day for tree-planting. Anyway, the seeds will sprout when they are ready although the seed germ could die if exposed for too long…)
Well, here’s a photo of one of my pepper plants showing the third round of flower buds. I planted this in a small plastic pot maybe about five months ago. My mother had earlier pruned this after an attack of ants. I pruned it again after another attack of ants. Now the flower and leaf buds seem to be doing much better and there are no attack of ants anymore. Maybe now the pepper plants will finally bear fruit!
