Very old mogra plant that shows me unconditional love |
Each of our garden plants have their own story of welcome , sharing spaces, sharing containers and shifting places and though we lost many due to very low light in this new space here, many have have been alongside as true friends. One special and loving plant is the Mogra.
Is my Mogra plant dead?

Such a small plant it had grown into a healthy size and did not flower, there was wonder in my thoughts as to whether this one is a flowering one or not. My first experience with growing Mogra plant. There was an innocent
love bonding between us and I was an amateur gardener, the time was full of
energy and of courses trying out techniques, tips, flowering and garden
container ideas. While there was a dream fulfilled of a pent house with a
terrace garden , there ware challenging situations with very strong sunlight
for most hours of the day.
With the little one that
came in a small black nursery bag, this one has surely seen quite a life till
date. Why it was going limpy and the leaves drying, there were red aphids attached to its roots. So began the trials together and it did allow me the liberty to trim shoots, dig it up, trim roots, manually wash out the bugs and spray with force watering to help it. With no experience the time was of waiting in anticipation, and even though I did not have any hope, the plant surely sprung up and gave out amazingly healthy shoots of greens and flowered abundantly. Since then it has given loads of big sized awesomely fragrant mogra flowers.
Years of trails and turbulence, shifting of spots in the terrace garden,
repotting issues and trimming harshly the over growths, trimming roots too to
help it grow healthy, all the tasks come in a form of a story of this beautiful
mogra plant. It was always so happy for me, it never asked for anything, truly
a close friend, this plant never required any fertilization or additional care,
it just keeps blooming!
This one after being
saved has given loads and loads of big sized mogra flowers.
After shifting to a new
place with entryway garden and no sunlight challenges, this Moghu, Mogra, dried
and my personal turmoils.., and travelling times, winter did its work. As it
looked completely dried I had mixed feelings.

Being with us and the
the challenges of watering, sunlight, air, dust ,pollution issues, even our
windows do not get direct sunlight, I had hardly expected any one to be with
me. In process of refurbishing garden design and ornamental pots on my wish
list. they have blessed me with being alongside with me in this times of
change.
Then finally added it to
a smaller pot and it took rest, I think a month has gone, and with no signs of
life..and yet, you keep watering it, hoping for some miracle, deep down you
also feel it is time..so many years...and suddenly a growth of fresh tiny leaf
, you will never understand the feeling of a true gardener, about this immense
happiness, hope, bravo to moghu! This is true love, true love stories never
end!
Life is like a garden,
you have to keep trimming, editing, repotting and shifting, and deal with the
garden of life on moment to moment ,daily basis. Relationships too need care
and delicate handling. You will learn so much from gardening, there are always
lessons for those who want to learn. never give up, never every give up for
what you want in life! Have the clarity of goals in life and you will see
beautiful roads unfolding in front of you, that is the way of the
Universe!
Just in case you see
some plants dried , do give them some time before throwing them or replacing
them! plants are living, they feel your love and they want to love you, only if
you are aware of their emotions, you would understand, the meaning of true
unconditional love!~
