Hey friends, all of you in this community, it's been a long time since I shared with friends about green things about the existing gardens. And tonight I'm going to share my own little garden in the field we just bought. This garden is still not tidy when viewed from the garden design, because we are still confused to arrange the right layout that will be adjusted to the shape of the house that we will build later.
My goal in making this mini garden before the house was built is because I want when my house is built there will be plants that provide shade so that my new house will not become barren. Then I made this mini garden so that when I needed herbs I just picked them. The herbal plants that I grow are adapted to my daily needs and are still rarely planted by people, so that when people need these plants they can take them in my garden without having to pay. Because helping people in a very simple way is much better than nothing.
Like a few days ago, my husband and I fell from the two-wheeled vehicle we were riding and thankfully there were no serious injuries, but my husband's bones shifted slightly, after receiving medical action, I also supported the treatment in the traditional way, namely by how to attach a Bakong leaf that I have smeared with oil and then roast it over low heat until it wilts and I wrap it on a sore bone while the leaf is still hot, this lily leaf is useful for treating broken bones, swollen wounds and strengthening muscles. After the accident, the displaced bones tend to swell, so it is very effective to apply these daffodils to the slightly shifted bones and this is clearly proven and efficacious not only to my husband, even many people have proven the power of these daffodils to reduce swelling.
Not only daffodils with various benefits that I plant, but there is also forest pepper fruit which I forgot the name, but this is clearly proven to lower blood sugar levels, considering I am a descendant of diabetics so I feel the need to plant fruit this. how to consume it is only to brew the black fruit with hot water, let it warm a little and then drink the water, some parents who are immune with a slightly spicy taste will chew these seeds without the help of hot water or sugar and the like, but for I personally I prefer to brew this pepper with hot water once a week for prevention only.
Not only that, in my mini garden, I also have an amazon tree that bears fruit for the first time. The taste of this amazon fruit is like a nut with a sweet taste on the skin, and a little hard like peanuts on the seeds, all of which can be eaten on condition that this fruit must be ripe which is marked by a change in the color of the fruit from green to orange or red. This amazon fruit is useful for reducing joint pains and pain caused by gout. And the shape of this amazon fruit is like a small and slightly oval melinjau. I just ate this fruit for the first time because this was the first fruit and I also got the seeds of this amazon fruit from my teaching friend. And it tastes really good though not as sweet as longans or grapes.
And not only that in my garden, I also plant kedondong fruit. This fruit has a slightly sour taste but is fresh and very suitable to be eaten with rujak seasoning, even though this kedondong tree is still small in size but there are already fruits, even lots of flowers. which reappeared among the leaves. Although a little sour but I really like this fruit, many people also use this kedondong fruit for sweets and it tastes quite fresh.
Even though my mini garden is still far from what I dreamed of, but I have the pride of owning this garden, I will multiply the types of plants when my house is built later, please be patient, this is a test..ha..ha. Keep spirit. How about your garden, do you also have various kinds of herbs in your garden? What's that? Hopefully we can share, greetings from us Tomi and Maya from Binjai City, Indonesia.
