Dreaming of having a small yard to grow flowers and plant trees, living a cozy life

The weather is hot, and dull city life goes on day after day. If I could have some free time to go back to my hometown and see Mom's small yard, the flowers, plants and fruit trees around the house, I would instantly feel relaxed and happy!

Trumpet vine

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

I forgot when the trumpet vine was planted. I only know that it was already in the small yard when I was very little, and now it has grown so much that it reaches over the wall

The fiery red trumpet vine makes me homesick every time I see it. My passion for my hometown never fades~

Chinese honeysuckle

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

The Chinese honeysuckle at home was planted by Grandma, and now it has grown into a whole wall, lush and green...

Up close it is actually especially beautiful. If all the flowers bloom, you cannot even count them

The other wall is different. Mom planted lots of vegetables, and there is also a big winter melon

Rose

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

The year before last, Mom took a single branch from a neighbor and rooted it by the door. Now it has climbed onto the roof, and you can see it from far away

There is also a flower trellis in the small yard. Having Mom's home makes me feel so happy

Grape

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

This year the grapes in the yard are bearing heavily, and Dad even rebuilt the trellis. It is packed full~

Every time I go back there are changes. For these grapes, I have decided to go home whenever I have free time. Nobody fight me for them

Cherry

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

When I was 18, Mom planted a cherry tree for me, and now it has grown this big. It rained a few days ago, and the cherries have all turned red

Picking and eating at the same time, the cherries sold outside really cannot compare with these!

Chayote

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

My mom planted a lot of chayote in the yard. I said they look like the Calabash Brothers

The small trees in the yard are all hung with chayotes. Before I left, Mom even picked a few for me to take along

Lilac

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

Lilacs are rarely seen outside, but quite a few are planted in the yard. Usually the little house looks rather plain, but when the flowers bloom it feels much livelier

Up close it is quite stunning, with densely packed small flowers, and the color even has a bit of gradient

Star jasmine

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

A star jasmine plant somehow appeared at home. Mom said she rarely tended it, yet it still grew quite big

You can smell its fragrance from far away, a very warm scent. Maybe because I am happy to be home, I am especially delighted anyway

Boston ivy

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

There are not many flowering plants in the hometown yard, mainly green plants. This wall of Boston ivy calms my heart with just one look

Hostas are planted by the corner of the other wall. They grow fast. At first there were only a few, and now they are a bit crowded

Loquat

Grow Flowers Complete Guide

I live in the south, and like many other southern yards, my home also has a loquat tree. As soon as I get home, Mom and Dad bring out the ladder to pick the fruit

We picked a full basket, to take away before leaving. When a child travels a thousand miles, the mother worries. Every time I truly cannot bear to leave home...

No matter how far apart

Home is an eternal concern

The people at home and the small yard

How long has it been since you saw them~
