Succulents - the water-retaining plants that adapted to arid climate or soil conditions.  They store water in their leaves, stems and/or roots.  They are similar to cactus but do not have thorns.

On the same day, from the Cuckoo Clock Center, we continued our journey to a garden farm.  It’s about 25 minutes from the Cuckoo Clock Center.  There were different types of plants and animals there.  Again, I have forgotten the name of this farm, and it’s exactly 5 years ago when I visited there.

I found different types of leaves there. 

This is cherry if I am not mistaken.

Rows of different colours of roses.

Rows of white-leaved small trees.

This is called gourds, - “hollow, dried shell of a fruits in the Cucurbitaceae family of plants of the genus Lagenaria.  Gourds can be used as a number of things, including bowls or bottles. Gourds are also used as resonating chambers on certain musical instruments including the berimbau and many other stringed instruments and drums.  Gourds are also used as a tool for sipping yerba mate by means of a bombilla, in Chile, Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil, where it is called “cuia” (kOOya). “  - quoted from Wikipedia.

There’s  a big pond for the geese and the sheep.

There’s a small shade for a duck called Arnold.

The duck and ducklings statues are very cute.

The sheeps at somewhere near the big pond were waiting for visitors to feed them.

I believe, the “farm cart” is one of the Australian tradition which can be found in many farms, and is one of the attraction in the farm.  But I don’t think they are still using it because the carts usually look old.

There are direction signs in the farm, and some decoration around it.

All these photos were taken exactly 5 years ago, and the place may look different now.  I wish I have had taken more photos there with a better camera.
