Roselle Bush


This one particular roselle plant of mine has grown too heavy and the stake couldn't support it anymore. I had to fill a bucket of heavy clay soil to hold it up.

 


It has also grown very large, tall and bushy, leaning towards my passion fruit trellis and blocking the narrow walkway.



This view below is from the other side of the blocked walkway. The lush green leaves in the black old water tank are sweet potato plants. Hopefully lots of tubers are growing inside.

 


With so much rain pounding the earth lately, the soil got too damp and soft and the whole plant toppled over. Harvested lots of rosellas and will post them up next day.


Have a great gardening week! Cheers!
