Cattleya In Bloom

It's been a while since I last had my cattleya bloom. And I was so delighted to see one blooming again. I have it beautifully hanging outside my window for 2 weeks now. There are 2 buds coming so I knew I'll be enjoying them for few more weeks. Lovely lady in ruffled dress, isn't she?

Flowers have spoken to me more than I can tell in written words.  

They are the hieroglyphics of angels, loved by all men for the beauty of their character, though few can decipher even fragments of their meaning.

Christmas Flower in 2 Colors

I was happy to have red poinsettias in my garden, and was happier to have another color.

Merry Christmas my friends. I hope you have a more blooming and fruitful year ahead.

Zinnias

I wont mind finding myself sleeping on this bed of zinnias.

Zinnias are colorful flowers that grow in many varieties and form, single, semi-double, double, and multiple layer . They're strong and easy to care. They're easy to grow, too. Just pick a dry flower, you find the seeds in the middle of it. Scatter them on the area where you want them to grow. After many days, you'll find little shoots with 2 tiny leaves coming out. I'm not sure how they do in a non-tropical place. But I know they grow best under full sunshine.

A beautiful flower begins its life in the dirt.
