- A beautiful, yet functional and edible tropical garden in Malaysia - see Mr Chow's garden that is filled with various heliconias, aroids, ferns, herbs and the most unassuming but incredibly natural waterfall & fish pond!
Thanks very much to Mr Chow who agreed on the spot on a CZcams plant tour and plant gifts when we recently visited him to have a 'cuppa tea'. :)
Let's connect! My instagram:

Just like me when someone visits my garden I give them plant gifts.. it's good to share our love for plants 💚
I LOVE how generous gardeners are! My fav friends are gardening friends....Mmmm. Plants!
Just like me too
I've shared all of my 12 different cannas, gave 10s of lotuses, bananas, ferns etc. But most importantly, lot's and lot's of young trees that I grow from seeds just for the fun of it.
And in return I got 100s of cuttings etc from my friends. Last one was 2 weeks ago. A whole pot of Thalia ❤️
I love that youre visiting other peoples tropical garden.. ❤️❤️❤️
I'm doing more of this in weeks to come but hope the Covid don't get any worse and we go back into lockdown again... :(
Some people are still plain old honest gardeners. Loved his generosity.
The water feature is relaxing.
He gave a plant gift...
This video reminds me of Barbados 🇧🇧. You visit someone and they gave you gifts from their garden.
This is a man's garden! It's like a man cave but outdoors, hope that make sense 🙂... and this is where I draw inspiration from for our garden... I bought 3 or 4 plants that I saw in this episode and they are flourishing now... I just love this episode! I come back almost everyday, hahaha! Not to be creepy but the naturalness and it's unpretentious beauty just draws me in... you get a homee vibe... Mr Chow is like my dad... my dad is a retired military man, if he was still alive, this is how his garden would have looked like... that is why our garden got a major revamp because of Mr Chow... he is such a wonderful host! Thank you for this episode Leafing Around! You are the best! ❤🇵🇭...
So heartwarming to hear. I shall let Mr Chow know! This was a time when he invited us over for tea and then I was thick skinned, just whipped out a camera and asked hey can I pls film your garden😄. Glad this has helped you to transform your garden!
8:15 is a edible amaranthus type known in India Kerala as Sambar cheera ,it's leaf is very tasty after cook .😀
Good to see fellow keralites around
I am looking at you from Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean....I really really love looking at your show....you are just so "you"...and I love that about you...so natural. Take care. GOD BLESS YOU...and keep making me happy through your vodeos..
Trinidad & Tobago sounds extremely exotic!! So happy that I can make YOU happy :)
Love people who share plants voluntarily ❤️
That was fun! I agree with tip 8!It made me LOL 😂
Wow,i love heliconia plants,i enjoy watching espicially the pond with the plants and fish too.with the owner,thank you for sharing your beautiful garden and pond.
I love your friends plants so much beautiful and green garden
Wow.. mr. Chow's garden is very amazing.. Great job Irene..
I love the type of garden , i m so admire - Mr Chow 👍🏻
Lovely video again Irene! Wish you all the best for a water pond. I just got mine done here. It's small and specifically done to grow water lilies. Peaceful and loving it.
Wow nice visiting you have bring plants 😍😍😍
This is an amazing setup! I really like the plants tucked into the waterfall.
Yes so natural looking! How i wish to have something like this...
Loved the video! Awesome and friendly host, gorgeous garden, gracious owner, and loved the plant gifts! Those heliconia are amazing!
How did I miss this comment earlier? Thanks so much Dan for your lovely words🥰
Irene you absolutely NEED a fish pond! I even have a small one in my dining room because they are so wonderful and so I can over winter my tropical water lilies, papyrus, etc. I have a pump on a timer in it and that waters my plant wall through irrigation drip tubes with the water (and fish poo) and does a partial water change for me so all I have to do is top off the water once a week. 2 birds one stone. Warning though. Water gardens are addictive so put in the absolute biggest one you can otherwise in a year you will be ripping it up to put in a bigger one! (That was our Covid project and we are ready to make it even bigger! ). It is my 5th pond.
I'm from Indonesia,i like this channel, because every plant has an ID name. success always for irene🙏
Terima kasih Maya!☺️🌱🌿☘️
Beautiful garden , love , love the pond.
Very beautiful, paradise, that's where I would spend my time

Thanks Paul - I will be looking for more gardens to tour in 2021!
Thank u for sharing your blessed wonderful plants
Beautiful tropical garden
😍 WOOOOW!!! your videos are wonderful 💞 , of which I feel very identified because we have many of those plants in Puerto Rico🇵🇷 which is in the tropical zone. I really liked the noise of the water and the pond Well I also think it is very relaxing in a garden.
A BIG HUG to you and the Mr. Chow from Puerto Rico.
🇵🇷😉👍
So exciting to have viewers from far flung Puerto Rico! Glad you enjoyed this video and my channel. Hugs back to you!🤗
I love the ferns on the pond😘💖💖
Another fantastic garden tour. Keep safe...watching from the Philippines.
Beatiful garden. Thanks for sharing. I wish I can have the garden like this!
Amazing heliconia!

This is so pretty!
Beautiful and very fresh!

Beautiful garden and nicely filmed! That waterfall is a piece of art!
Nicely filmed? My husband will be gloating for weeks now :D
I also love giving out children of my plants, because I wanted it to spread accross my circle. i
Water feature is spectacular.
May GOD multiply in great abundance❤
Love your videos, this guy has a gorgeous garden 👌
Yes and he is a true gardener, propagating them himself, not chasing trendy plants and instagraming them ...😄
just watching..i enjoyed much seeing types of plants..thank you Irene for this video...Godbless! From: Philippines🥰
Happy you found us here!
WOW..thats a beautiful..beautiful garden
So nice of you! Yes the owner is really dedicated to gardening!
I love your channel. In the Philippines we have camia or the white ginger lily. Our Camia plant continued to bloom profusely with the rains and cool weather. With so many flowers, it's so extraordinarily fragrant. I smell it when I open the bedroom window.
Thanks for sharing! U just reminded me now....MR Chow gave me some but I have not seen them bloom in my garden!
Que lindoooo lugar jardín 😍🌿🌵🌾🍀🖒🙏❤ bendiciones
Because of your channel I became addictive to tropical plants and spent lots of money lately on orchid, heliconias, ginger, and other tropical plants I can’t pronounce. 😁
😯😯😯I feel a little guilty. Do leaf some money in the bank! 🌱🌿☘️
Beautiful Garden🌴🤗
Beautiful!🥰
Beautiful garden
Beautiful garden and pond
What a beautiful garden. Mr. Irene, please let your wife have a small water feature in her garden. Water sounds are very soothing, every garden should have one.
Amazing!🥰
Thanks for sharing love from india❤🙏
You have a wonderful & generous neighbor..
Yes...and have collected more stuff around too lately! Another neighbour threw away a lot of nice wooden planks! Vertical wooden wall here we come!😃
Hi Mam irine I'm liezi from Philippines,im so amazed about your house garden and how you design it,last yeer me and my husband visit Malaysia Kuala Lumpur,I'm so amazed and loving all your philodendron plant,especially your begonia,I love philo,monstera but I'm found of begonias they have characters that even they not that eye catching like philo and monstera do,but for me I more amazed by their character and beauty......actually as I watch you planting and making your garden ,I love planting but here in manila we have a little space and there's no space for me to plant,I hope that one day in the future I can make me a garden too and design it my own.......
Hi Liezi, there are so many lovely plants in Phillipines too...especially Alocasias! I hope you can find a small corner to make that your cosy little green paradise🌴🌿🌱🍀
Nice heliconia😍👍🏻
Great tour! I love all these Heliconia, gingers, and other tropical plants just grow happily without much care! I think that mystery plant is a Hosta, but they are cold climate plants. Maybe it’s some kind of elephant ear? My pond is “the cherry on top” of my garden! I hope your husband changes his mind. if you want a waterfall, you’ll be amazed what TEAM Aquascape builds in Chicago, USA. Whatever you do don’t build it out of concrete! It’s such a headache!
Thank you and I am a barefoot loving gardener too! Just have to watch out for 🐍 😄. Instead of a waterfall, I am now installing a spiral staircase painted in blue...if I imagine hard enough, it can be a waterfall.🤣
The white flowered plant is kalyanasaugandhika...very common in Kerala ... India.. because of it fragrance it is believed that Bhima(Maha bharata) brought it from Gandhamarutha parvath for Panchali...
What a beautiful story...thank you so much! The plant is even more meaningful now😀
Muitíssimo lindo esse Jardim 😘❤🌺🇧🇷
White ginger lily is Camia in the Philippines....maybe found wild in our province Albay.😊
Wauw.. beautiful 👍
Thank you plant sister!
Great video... Amazing
Just discover your channel a few days ago. Love all your plants tour like Penang hill, plants cafe, and home tour etc. Please bring us more to similar tours in Malaysia. By the way, the big leaves plant is cardwell lily. I have one at home too.
Thank you for appreciating mybtour videos! Tour videos are fun to do and yes I shall certainly do more Malaysian garden tours in 2021! Thanks for the plant ID btw!
Awesome
👍🏼Very sweet video. The ??? is the Caldwell Lily.
Haha! I love Tip # 8.
Beautiful 👍
It's very nice. He must have pump to make the water run none stop.
Wow! You scored girl! I need friends like him!! Lol 😍
Ah yes and those plants also not easy to find at nurseries too!
Leafing Around I definitely know that! 😍 you deserve it! Thanks for sharing with us. I feel like I was gifted those plants now lol
I hope you convince your husband to have a pond 💚 having on is really calming.
Not yet but he is going away for the next few days....I'm thinking to just commission someone to make one quickly. He never goes out to the garden anyway....maybe he won't notice :P
Ginseng Jawa is called Talinum here in the Philippines --- not commercially available vegetable but can be found in some farms and gardens.🙂
Thank you for showing us around such an interesting and well maintained garden, I really liked the mixture of edible and ornamental plants. The plant you are unsure of may be Proiphys amboinensis.
Much welcome - happy to hear you enjoyed the video and gracias for the plant ID!
I love plant gifts. I know you're excited.
Wowwwwww
Очень красиво и атмосферно! Пышная зелень и шум воды.... Это рай на земле!
Thank you...I am blessed to be in tropical place. But we have those damn mosquitoes here :P
Oh how I love the video 💕💕💕🙍🏿♀️✋🏿🙏🏿
Thanks Claudine! :) This was rather impromptu...we were invited for tea and I turned up with a camera 😅
Very nice
Behad khubsurat
Que lindo 😍
The music feels like victory parade of war movie ☺️
🤣🤣🤣 yes parade of the victorious plants!
Oww..ow..i'm looking for that pink heliconia too 😭👋👋
Good morning ❤❤
We eat sweet potato leaves (kamote tops) too, either boiled/blanched then dipped in a local fish sauce with vinegar, or as one of the ingredients of sour soup (sinigang) with beef, pork, shrimps/prawns or fish. Kamote tops are said to have high nutritional value.
I love sinigang! Usually with fish...
The big leaf that you both have that flowers sometimes looks like a Cardwell Lily. I love his water feature!
Ginseng jawa is used to make dal in south India...it's called cilone batchali
Aqui no Brasil tem essas plantas muito legal
That is a shade plant called a hosta, flowers once a year either with a white or purple flower..but beautiful.
What is the name of that white flower plant. We call it kalyanasaugandhigam. I think it's ginger type roots
Just awesome ❤️❤️
Very nice sis😍
It feels homely, I thought it's a garden tour in southern most Indian state Kerala, we have the same plants, fish, and every house has a banana tree etc.. and I think we got the same climate . 😊
J
Because of this video I bought myself several root cuttings of Heliconia Sexy Pink. I hope they will bloom in less than a year.
😁😁. Best of luck! Somehow I struggle with Sexy Pink...I think they need a lot of light
Nice
Now I know that fish poops can be a great plants fertilizer too .
Called in tagalog "Talilong" Delecious vegetable, specially mix for balatong or monggo.
I want the heliconia you got 😅 I'm really envy about it
I hope you can find them where you are!
Lol! I like how you convince ur husband to have a pond in ur garden
Haha...but he is still not convinced. He thinks it will attract frogs...and then 🐍 snakes 🙄
@@leafing.around yes, but you should just adjust with patio pond😂🤦
Yes babe tanaman hias tanaman hutan
❤❤❤
The plant that you were questioning, looks like a Hosta.
