Have you seen an Alamunda?
It has pretty bell-shaped yellow flowers.Perfect oval, jewel green leaves with a waxy texture.It’s a climber and one of my favorite plants in my balcony garden.
It’s also one of the first plants I bought.The water and nutrition need of the plant is less and is very easy to care for.

If you wish to make anything grow, you must understand it and understand it in a very real sense. ‘Green fingers’ are a fact, and a mystery only to the unpracticed. But green fingers are the extensions of a verdant heart.”
Russell Page, The Education of a Gardener
It wraps around the support you give it quickly makes a beautiful green wall or canopy for you to gaze at.
If you want to change the view from your room.Block out an ugly building, this is just the one for you.
- Put it in a nice deep pot with potting soil and bone meal mixed with regular soil.
- Place it in the middle.Fill up the pot
- Keep about 2 inches free from the rim of the pot.
You can put a few sticks deep into the pot and make a frame with wire if you are putting this in your roof .or you can let it hug the balcony rails and grow either way it will make you happy.
It blooms throughout most of the year, except in winters when the old leaves need to be trimmed and the plant hibernates.Sun filtering through the leaves is the prettiest picture you will ever see.
What do I use for keeping nutrition of the potted plant intact to make it grow well?

Lovely blooms, Amrita. I’ve seen them here too and wondered what they’re called. Glad to know their name today.
Beautiful flowers! A balcony garden is a wonderful de-stressor!
That’s a beautiful flower and I never knew they are called Alamunda. You have a lovely space, Amrita. Thanks for joining!
Thanks Parul
What an enchanting balcony you have put there Amrita. Didn’t know these flowers were called Almuda. A new thing learnt???? thank you
such beautiful flowers..I agree the best way to decorate your balcony is with flowers
Growing a plant is so much difficult in winter… A lot of my seedlings died. This is actually a great way to decorate the backyard too… Love your balcony.
We see these all over Singapore on the roadsides and flyovers– very pretty blooms.
I loved the yellow almunda in your balcony, I have seen them in the park nearby at my place where i live… always wanted to click, it looks lovely. I liked the quote and thanks for sharing so much information, appreciate you.
