The weather has turned hot, and dull city life goes on day after day. If you can find the time to return to your hometown, to see Mom's little courtyard and the flowers, grasses, and fruit trees planted around the house, your body and mind instantly feel refreshed!



Chinese trumpet creeper

I forget when the Chinese trumpet creeper was planted. I only know it was already in the little courtyard when I was very small, and now it has grown so much that it reaches out over the courtyard wall







The fiery red Chinese trumpet creeper flowers, the moment I see them I want to go home. My passion for my hometown never fades~







Chinese honeysuckle (Combretum indicum)

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 the flowers all bloom, you cannot even count them







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






Rose (Rosa multiflora)


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


The year before last, Mom took a single branch that she had asked a neighbor for and rooted it by the door, and now it has climbed up to the roof. You can see it from far away







There is also a flower stand in the little courtyard. Having Mom's home is simply too happy







Grape


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


This year the grapes in the courtyard bore heavily, and Dad even rebuilt the trellis. It is packed full~







Every time I go back there are changes. For the sake of these grapes, I have decided to go home whenever I have free time. No one try to compete with me










Cherry


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


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


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


My mom planted a lot of chayote in the courtyard. I said it looks like the Calabash Brothers







The little trees in the courtyard were all hung with gourds, and when I was leaving, Mom even picked a few for me to take along







Lilac


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


Lilacs, rarely seen outside, are planted quite a few in the courtyard. 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 little flowers, and the colors even have some gradient







Star jasmine


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


A star jasmine plant appeared at home at some point. Mom said she hardly took care of it, yet it still grew quite big







You can smell its fragrance from far away, a very warm scent. Maybe because I am home and in a good mood, I am especially happy anyway







Boston ivy


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


There are not many flowering plants in the hometown courtyard, mainly green plants. This wall of Boston ivy, one look, and the heart quiets down







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







Loquat


C o m p l e t e   G u i d e   t o   F l o w e r   G r o w i n g


My home is in the south, much like many other southern courtyards. My family also has a loquat tree. As soon as I got home, Mom and Dad brought out the ladder to pick the fruit







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









No matter how far apart




Home is an eternal concern




The people at home and the little courtyard




How long has it been since you saw them~
