Pakistan Gardening Forum

Hello everyone!
My name is Ali.Im a resident of Gulistan e jauhar, Karachi. I spent my early years in a Karachi University bungalow that had lush green lawns and plenty of flora and fauna.It is from there, i believe, my interest in nature grew.Had a hiatus for some years when we moved to Jauhar and the medical study load piled on.Finally, Im getting back in touch with Gardening.Presently, i am growing potted aloe vera and grape vine, a Curry tree and a lemon tree in ground and a couple of roses in pots.I have also developed an infatuation for floral vines which are low maintenance.

Need lots of help and guidance if someone is willing.


Thanks!

Welcome to the forum... you can get a lot of information from the forum if you are willing to search....

I went through quite a lot of posts.It was uplifting to see a community so eager to help out each other in this great hobby.
I''d like to share some of my plants here.Your feedback would be most welcome!

a look at my plants!

The light green leaf vine is ornamental sweet potato...
Kindly search for "root stock", "junglee" and "graft".... for your roses...

Thank you!
I had another query.Ive had this raat ki raani plant in the same pot for over 3 years now but its never climbed up the wall or flowered.Ive been feeding it khaad and watering i regularly too but it doesnt seem to gain height.what am i doing wrong?

Also Izhar bhai, are Marva and Kamini the different varieties of the same plant or are they the different names of the same plant.
I read your posts about them and was delighted to know they are highly fragrant and bloom continuously.Just what i need to make a small border hedge in my mini-lawn.
Would you happen to know if any of the nurseries on main university road or the ones near malir cantt gate 5 have marwa/kamini?

Izhar bhai i just found this post from 2011,viewtopic.php?f=16&t=41


do you still have the marva/kamini seeds that you could give me? if so,how can i get them from you?

Poor RANI in a servant quarter, who told you it was a climber?
Select pots according to eventual size of a plant.
