Copper Leaf Plant

One of the most colourful plants in my garden is Copper Leaf. It has a wide range of colours, all depending on the exposure to the sun. Those under the sun will produce bright reddish copper while those under the shade will give dull bronze colour. But too much heat under the sun will twist the leaves.
The leaves are generally large while the flowers are small, hardly noticeable. Anyway, it does not need the flowers to propagate, just a cutting will grow into full plant.

Black and Yellow Bumpy Bee

"I see you! I see you! But, what are you doing?"

The bee moved very fast from one Bauhinia purpurea flower to another, less than five seconds. I had a hard time taking the photographs of this fat bee.

Is it really getting the honey from the flower or just flirting/surveying round?

Nangka (Jack Fruit)

It grew up from nowhere at my back garden into a ten-foot tree five years back. I did not know what was that tree and I did not like the tree because it dropped so many leaves on the garden floor every day. So I cut the tree down at the base three years ago, getting rid of it.

It grew up again with two trunks, this time even faster. Before I paid attention to the regenerated tree, I saw the fruits growing on the tree last year. Only then I realised that it was a jack fruit tree. 

This jack fruit tree is of different variety compared to that found in my farm. But the fruits did not grow until ripen. The fruit flies drilled through the thick skin and soon the fruits were gone.

Now, the fruits came out again, with more numbers. But I saw a few had been colonised by fruit flies.So, I use the plastic bags to seal off a few big ones. Let see whether I will be able to eat some this year.

Water Apple

The old tree in my garden is fruiting again, attracting so many birds and noises. But they are too high up, I can only look and let the birds happily having feasts.
Don't ask me to climb up, the tree is full of red ants.

Perhaps, I have to get a electric shaker and put a large net down there, SHAKE and let the fruits drop on the net!
Any such Tree Shaker product?

Brownish yellow Dragonfly

What are you sucking? There isn't much juice for you to suck from the lonely stem.
Oh! Look like this beauty is having a passionate kiss on the stem! Hei, You should go for your same kind, not the cold wood!
Is dragonfly warm blooded?

Celosia spicata

Obviously, there are not many exotic flowers of this plant to brag about. I saw the same plant not far from my house near the road side, not only tall at about 1.2m height, but also fully blooms with the reddish pink flowers, probably a few hundreds. How does the plant grow so well, I wonder. 
It seems that nobody knows the origin of this exotic plant.

Clown Flowers

With so many clowns dancing around in the garden, it does make the garden lively.
