Blossoming Passion: A Journey of Gardening, Learning, and Perseverance

Step into the tranquil beginnings of my journey in Kota Kemuning two decades ago, where amidst the calm, a yearning for vitality stirred. With my spouse often away, I craved solace and purpose. Balancing academia and domesticity, the idea of crafting a blog and delving into culinary ventures beckoned.

 

Yet, it was the sight of the barren plot outside my home that ignited an insatiable desire for lush greenery. Having only dabbled in indoor plants before, the notion of gardening felt foreign. However, the vast potential of this newfound space sparked an intense passion within me.

 

Undeterred by my lack of expertise, I embraced this botanical adventure wholeheartedly. Despite inevitable challenges and blunders, nurturing my budding garden proved immensely rewarding. Each trip to the nursery, each struggle with unwieldy pots, and each battle with stubborn soil, became lessons in resilience and growth.


Despite setbacks, my determination never wavered. Today, while my horticultural knowledge has expanded, there are still species that elude me. Nevertheless, I persist, unwavering in my pursuit and ever hopeful of nature's grace.


From tenderly caring for my green haven to seeking wisdom from seasoned horticulturists, every moment is a testament to my unwavering dedication. As I continue to navigate the complexities of gardening, I eagerly anticipate sharing more of this flourishing journey with you all.

 

Reflecting on it now, I realize that what began as a mere hobby has blossomed into the heart of Nava's Zen urban gardening. Gardening has become more than just a pastime—it's a profound connection between Mother Earth and myself. Together, we find solace, release stress, and share an unbreakable bond rooted in love.
