mini ok tedi

janu and his good mate from across the road, emanuel. This must have been one of the first times they played - you can hear E say 'what's his name again?!' He was so lovely, and wanted to be a engineer when he grows up. He's lived in Tabubil pretty much his whole life. 

We made these gardens when we arrived, and I collected lots of marigold seed from flowers all around town. I couldn’t think of any reason why not to fill each and every bed full of them. Some seeds pilched from seed heads in hobarts botanic gardens also flowered. Interestingly, in tas they were tall and willowy, and when growing in hot humid PNG, they were short and squat. great how they grew from seed this high in just a month or 2 - the beds were bare in the videos above!
