Good night to all my beloved hive friends ♥️

On this very happy occasion I will share some pictures showing my activities today when I was in my uncle's garden, and one of my activities when looking for clover leaves to be used as a side dish for dinner, continue to read my posts so you can feel the excitement and enjoy.

So today I got an order from my uncle to deliver food supplies for the workers on his plantation, hearing the order I immediately agreed because I also wanted to go to the plantation to look for some beautiful pictures there, after all the supplies were prepared I started this journey towards my uncle's plantation, and after spending 1 hour traveling I finally arrived at the plantation.

A hut that has been provided there as a resting place for the workers, and the hut is not only a resting place but also a place to stay overnight in the garden, the atmosphere still looks very traditional and beautiful and we can also see extraordinary natural views from my uncle's garden.

When I arrived at the garden, I immediately handed over all the equipment I had brought, and after that I had time to rest for a while on the hut to relieve my fatigue from the journey, and while I was resting on top, suddenly I saw a very unique plant because it had trees that spread above the ground.

Seeing the uniqueness of the plant, I immediately got down and started to approach the plant.

It so happened that my uncle was around the hut, I immediately took the time to ask a little about the climbing plant, my uncle then told me that it was a cucumber plant, this plant was deliberately cultivated on this plantation because the fruit is very fresh so it is very suitable to be enjoyed when the sun is very hot.

However, caring for this plant is also a bit complicated because we have to maintain the water levels and provide the right plant medicine, because the leaves of this plant are very susceptible to pests such as caterpillars.

However, after I looked more closely, it turned out that the plant already had several fruits, some of which looked very ripe.

And what's unique is that when this fruit is too ripe, it will split by itself, and its skin will also peel off, so this fruit will be picked immediately when the fruit looks ripe. but not only the fruit, this plant also has very beautiful flowers that have a unique shape and very tempting colors.

However, when I first touched this plant, I was a little surprised because all parts of this plant had fine hairs that looked a little funny, but my uncle said that these fine hairs were not dangerous and could not cause serious symptoms, but we also have to be careful because these hairs can cause itching if we are exposed to these hairs in large quantities.

Because of the fine hairs on this plant, I had to photograph it from a very close distance so that the fine hairs could be seen perfectly.

It turns out that I often eat this fruit when the month of Ramadan arrives, because this fruit is very suitable to be eaten when people want to break their fast, but previously I did not know what the tree looked like, but now that I see it in front of my eyes, it is a science and very useful for me.

After spending quite a long time in my uncle's garden, I finally went home at exactly 4.00 pm, and when I arrived home, suddenly my aunt told me to pick some clover leaves near the oil palm plantation, I who had not rested since earlier was a little annoyed to hear her order but because my aunt said she wanted to cook delicious food, I immediately followed her order lol.

However, to get to the oil palm plantation is not too far from my house so it only takes about 7 minutes by motorbike, when I got there I immediately found the leaves that my aunt was referring to because the leaves did grow very well next to the oil palm plantation.

I often see this leaf when hunting for pictures in oil palm plantations, but previously I did not know that this leaf could be eaten, I only found out after getting an order from my aunt to pick this leaf. This leaf itself has a very unique shape, namely a square which creates the attraction and beauty presented by this leaf. This is what this leaf looks like if I take a close-up photo.

and this is what the leaf looks like if I take a picture of it from a very close distance

maybe in my area rarely anyone knows that these leaves can be eaten because I don't see anyone picking these leaves apart from me. and after I took a few pictures of the leaves I immediately picked them.

It just so happened that at that time I wanted to pick the leaves, there was a little kid who asked to come along, and after picking the leaves, the little kid asked me to take a photo of him holding the leaves.

My aunt said that these leaves are very delicious when processed into fresh vegetables, and my aunt also said that we will often find them in these leaves when we buy pecel, and in my area pecel is very popular, especially among older people.

And after picking a large number of these leaves, we immediately went home to give these leaves to my aunt.

So that's my activity today which describes a life that is still very traditional and is treated to natural scenery that still looks very beautiful, and with the little story that I have conveyed, this time I really hope that my post this time can provide entertainment for all my friends.
