The white
Bunga Bakawali, the most fragrant of all flowers, has a new pink friend as company. Fiza, our front neighbour gave Kakdah a leaf of pink
bakawali months ago. Yes, a leaf, and that's how one grows Bakawali ..... with a leaf. The other day I sent 3 sections of white
bakawali leaf to a blogger friend via post. She mentioned about the cuttings had rooted. It will be a while before tiny shoots start appearing at the nodes, or dents in
bakawali case.
But our new pink bunga
bakawali is beginning to to show its prominence, letting out shoots artistically.

Judging by the first bunga
bakawali blooming way back January 17, 2011 (
Bunga Bakawali Blooming, the stages.), the pink bunga
bakawali will take a while to flower. I wouldn't know exactly when, but the leaves got to get old and matured to let out buds and flowers.....
