Attractive White Flower Of Bottle Gourd

I finally get to see the white flower of the bottle gourd plant and get to take some snap shots of the attractive white flower.

Fan like green leaves of the bottle gourd plants.
Bud of the bottle gourd plant.
Usually the flowers are facing upwards above my head so I couldn't see or take good photos of the flowers. This flower happened to be at the edge of the trellis where I can see it clearly.
Attractive delicate white flower of the bottle gourd.
These are some of the bottle gourds harvested from my garden.
This is still growing well even in this rainy season.

What a God he is! How perfect in every way!
All his promises prove true.

  8. Nice white flowers! I see people planting vegetables creeping all over their fences, big flowers like that but yellow in colour. I wonder what vegetable that is.

    1. Century egg is preserved egg. The process changes the duck egg to black in colour.

  17. apologies for not commenting on your blog for some time, I had blogger issues/glitsch. I love the mural you found on that wall and am interested in the bottle gourd,I wonder if it would grow in the UK, might be worth a try - it has a lovely flower. Food looks good, not sure what a centuries egg is but imagine it's preserved and old :)

    1. Thank you, Betty. Glad you are back. Century egg is preserved and the process will change the egg to black colour.
