frugalandnatura: Aren't you in luck! I did the same but with thread on some bottles. You can't find Mod Podge easily here (but I bought 2 jars of it and truly I don't think it's all that, it doesn't stick so well). Try using white carpenter's glue (that's what I used and it's lasted over a year and a half indoors). For the raffia, under the bridge at Maryland/Mende has them (I got mine from there).

I really am lucky. Thanks, I will try the white carpenters glue then (I hope it will glue metal sha). How much did you buy the raffia? Can I see a picture of the one you did? Onegai: 1 Like |

frugalandnatura: If it's metal you can use a glue gun (but I'm not sure try it first). Raffia was like N800 a year ago (pretty sure they cheated me sha). You get it from those guys who weave baskets under the bridge. 1 Like |

Hello guys, I think rainy season is not a great time for blooming flowers. I went to a horticulturist to see some flowers that blooms during the rainy season. lease who can help with identification of the flowers botanical names. If you have pictures of plants with flowers blooming at this period, kindly upload and see varieties we can have. If you have pictures of dry season flowers too no wahala, just indicate what times they bloom. Colourful flowers are wonderful to have all year round. 2 Likes 1 Share

frugalandnatura: Maybe you should look at buying from reputable seed companies online. Aliexpress is very cheap but the seeds might be unreliable. I am planning to order from a seed company in US. I have bought from aliexpress and they were just delivered. Planning to plant soon. Does anyone know where i can get thyme plant in Lagos. |
Re: The Hibiscus Flower Society: Calling All Gardeners, Flower Lovers Etc by Onegai(f): 9:36pm On Oct 22, 2016 |
Ochuwaidatsaba: Hello. I don't know, I think your best bet is to make enquries from Rosety Gardens, Taison, Aralia by Nature or Oma Gardens. Then have a look around those local gardeners and finally if all else fails, order seeds online. |

People like gardening but when you live in a flat in Lagos and experience the daily stress you are not likely to do it. We had to move from the city, and to a bungalow, to begin to enjoy growing plants for their beauty but also some for food. For us, a mix is important. We enjoy eating our tomatoes, ugu, ewedu and waterleaf while we anticipate the fruits even as we appreciate the colours of our other plants. Thanks for sharing. The florist who made my wedding bouquet years ago is still in business and does a satisfactory job. She's not cheap though. 4 Likes 1 Share |

oriaburefarms: Please, if u do flowers, do you have those that can be used to beautify a school and ain't toxic? Also, how much do they go for, the school is around Iyana-ipaja, and will u deliver? |
Re: The Hibiscus Flower Society: Calling All Gardeners, Flower Lovers Etc by oriaburefarms: 8:55am On Jan 08, 2017 |
Yampotatocarrot: We are mainly into trees. If you are interested in an esthetic plant. We do suggest delonix regia o paulownia tomentosa. We also have fruit bearing trees like : mango and avocado. Or you can choice an evergreen like: dogoyaro or polyalthia variegata. We sell according to height and the lowest price is 1000. For more info come visit and see for yourself the maintenance and care we give to our plants |

lorhema: Is it the one they call julie mango?! The one thats alway green even when its ripe. We have it |
Re: The Hibiscus Flower Society: Calling All Gardeners, Flower Lovers Etc by lorhema(f): 8:33pm On Feb 17, 2017 |
Thanks for responding. No, Ogbomosho mango changes colour as it ripens although it could be eaten when it's still green(but is beginning to ripen). |

Where can one get seeds or seedlings of these flowers in Nigeria? |
Re: The Hibiscus Flower Society: Calling All Gardeners, Flower Lovers Etc by Onegai(f): 8:54am On Mar 25, 2017 |
Seun: Most of them don't come in seeds but approach those roadside gardeners and ask to buy a plant or a cutting. Some will be for free, others will cost more. Depending on how exotic or expensive the plant is, you may want to meet the bigger, professional gardeners for them. Hmm, I should continue this thread... |
Re: The Hibiscus Flower Society: Calling All Gardeners, Flower Lovers Etc by Onegai(f): 8:55am On Mar 25, 2017 |
harmbhrosz: I dunno, family upbringing? We have "weird tastes" (according to most Nigerians) in my family. |
Re: The Hibiscus Flower Society: Calling All Gardeners, Flower Lovers Etc by Onegai(f): 8:57am On Mar 25, 2017 |
rabzy: There are actually some organic city farmers with herbs. Check out Natural Nigerian on Instagram, she usually posts about them because they sell plants and even teach classes on how to establish an urban garden. @cupcakecouturelagos has an urban garden and provides seedlings so contact her on Instagram and join her newsletter.

Ponytail Palm We are back! I lost my phone and all my pictures of this plant were on it A ponytail palm is a very unique looking plant. Guess what, it is NOT a palm, it is actually a succulent. It had a strange, bulbous looking bottom and the leaves are very hair-like. Apart from its look, what made it stand out for me? The price. A small ponytail palm in a pot (as of last year) went for a whopping N50, 000. It is easy to find a N250, 000 ponytail palm. That's because they live for a long time so a ponytail palm that is 20 years old or more and deeply rooted can cost upto N500, 000. Ponytails are nice for Bonsai. They require very little fertilizer and Water. 1 Like 1 Share
