About

Gardening has become a form of retreat,a demanding hobby,unforgiving but amply rewarding since two years.
I have made mistakes, but learnt a lot. Thank God for keeping me alive and excited .

    What a wonderful garden and blog you have. Every time I come across a nice garden blog from India I am elated. You will find me visiting your blog regularly from now on.

  2. I am so happy you left a comment on my blog because I could find you. I LOVE your blog and am going to learn a lot about gardening in your space. You will hear a lot from me in the coming months (maybe a year) :) since I am planning on having a terrace and backyard vegetable garden once we finish the construction of our new home.

    Thanks for dropping by and your sweet words. Appreciate it very much.

    Thank you so much for stopping by my blog, or else how would I have found you… Do let me know how your wine turned out.

    My husband and I started terrace Gardening since we got married two years back… but since we travel a lot we have lost a lot of plants due to lack of maintenance and also because we made some huge disastrous mistakes(using a chemical fertilizer etc).

    I can learn a lot from your blog… I’ll be a regular visitor.

    • gardenerat60 says:

      Thank you Anisha. Yes, terrace garden needs a lot of love and care and time. It is like having children.:-).

      I am still learning how to grow plants, all from internet friends. It is a pleasure to discuss our passion with like minded people.
      You are welcome to discuss issues here. Come let us all learn together and make the house green.

    Thanks for voting on my blogpost on indivine, ma’am. This is a lovely blog you have. Oh how i wish I had space enough here in Kolkata for some gardening. We have a tiny kitchen garden in my hometown in Maharashtra and its always a pleasure to be there amidst plants.

    • gardenerat60 says:

      Welome here Diptee, and thanks for the sweet comment.

      I am sure ,even one plant if we have in the balcony , it gives so much peace in the mornings. May be a time will come, you might be tending to plants and enjoy them. It took me 60 years:-)

  21. Hello Aunty(If I may call you so), you have a beautiful garden, your blog is very inspiring. My husband is a very big fan of organic farming, but we have our reasons to not start one in a piece of land. But I am glad i stumbled upon your blog. I will surely seek tips from you some day :)

    I am designing a courtyard garden (2nd floor upwards) and need to know which trees / plants can be grown there. What should be the soil layer height? Its for a mansion in Hyderabad, India in case you need to know the climatic conditions.
