The Pandemic Cannot Stop City Face Lift And My Re-Planting

Unstoppable

Okay, the Covid19 is not yet over. There was even a spike on the cases in the UAE again the past week. But that doesn't mean life stops.

In the past months, Abu Dhabi has been undergoing some serious "face lifting" all over. Seriously, I think they never stop. It seems that for years, everywhere you look there would be something being done.

In my neighborhood, they are also in the finishing touches of what they have been working on for a few months now. They have finally removed the barriers for their hard work to be viewed from the road.

They have also finished planting across the landscape. Small plants, shrubs and trees -- they have added these to put more "green" around.

I am really excited when they finally finish. I think this will be awesome especially at night.

More Plants

They keep the city green by adding plants almost everywhere. Today, as I was walking by I saw some more plants at the sidewalk waiting to be planted.

I couldn't help but notice these emptied plant pots, so I asked the worker who was there if I could take some. Yeah, I know, do not hesitate. Ask and you shall receive. LOL.

I am sure these would go straight to the bins anyway, so why not take them to re-use, right? Thankfully, he said yes, even without asking from his supervisor. Haha. Actually, I was looking around if there was any good soil that I could take also, but there was none, so the just the pots were okay. 😁

Repotting

My basil plants are growing well, and they already need to be replanted to bigger pots. These newly acquired pots are a good find.

I'll probably work on the replanting tomorrow. I'm so excited for my basil plants. They sure will be very happy to be repotted to a bigger home.

That's all for now. Will share how my basil would thrive in their new pots soon! It's been a while since my last plants post.
