POLYGONUM CAPITATUM

I had a very long day today. It is only now that I can sit down and relax. The wifi is finally up now, so I am using this single post as a test.

These were the same photos that took me almost an hour before I gave up yesterday. Anyway, these Polygonum capitatum groundcovers planted by my colleague from GB are so pretty in pink.

With this, I conclude that the wifi is indeed working fine and I hope it stays that way since I do not know the problem and how to solve it.

NURSERY HOLDING AREA

This part of the Nursery Holding Area was planted just before the Clean and Green 2009. Most of the plants on the slope have grown so well. One of my favourites in this area is the slightly variegated Sanchezia nobilis.

On the parapet wall, the new team tried to plant some groundcovers e.g.Acalypha reptans (synonym: A. pendula, A. chamaedrifolia, A. repens; Family: Euphorbiaceae),Polygonum capitatum (synonym:Persicaria capitata; common name: Pinkhead Smartweed, Japanese Knotweed; Family: Polygonaceae), to soften the concrete structure.

2 links on the plants are posted below:
