are doing well. The rose, the pansies, the zinnias as well as the other flowers have given their beauty. Even my strawberries have ripen into juicy fruits. They were delicious.
My calamansi or calamondin citrus fruits have ripen. I have to harvest them tomorrow and freeze the juice for later use. I use them for marinating the meat or for making my calamansi tea.
I think I really have green fingers. My balcony is becoming colorful. One day, the butterflies will come as my lantana camara flowers are starting to bloom. Butterflies love this flower. Well, I hope butterflies will really come to visit.
Do you have green fingers?
Omg! It is 2 late night now. I have to sleep. It's getting late as we were watching a movie about Mark Twin. Goodnight everyone. Good morning to those who have just woken up from their sleep.
Thanks for reading. See you later.

It's good that you have calamansi there. I wonder how it fares during the winter.

@thelme55 gee, that is nice to hear that a calamansi tree is thriving there. My father told me that he planted calamansi in my uncle's home in California. It grew taller than him and was always heavily fruiting. But there is no snow in Los Angeles.

@Alexandoy Wow! That is great. I think the weather there is like in the Philippines.

It is a hybrid calamansi and it is a small plant which gives a lot of fruits. It is inside the living room in winter but outside in the balcony in summer. Thanks @Alexandoy.

I never had green fingers even though I had a garden in Latvia. That is a beautiful flower and bet of luck to you with all your plants, Sweet dreams!

@thelme55 no I don't. I have an aloe plant, a vine plant, and a Christmas cactus in pots on my porch

@simplfred I always search online the names of the plants that I planted as I want to know how to take good care of them.

Nope, my daddy had the green thumb. I wish that I had inherited it.

No, I don't really have a green thumb; but then I really haven't tried to grow much either. I'll bet your balcony looks beautiful.
