I love capturing photos of plants, food and non-living things because I always believe, although they are not human, but they do have their own expression and emotion yet to be read and appreciated.

New Plants @ Home

Buying new plant has become one of the SOP of pre-CNY preparation in my family. This post, I’m only going to show 2, of course we bought more than 2 but I didn’t have their photos (kept forgetting to take photos while they were in their optimum beauty, most of them, especially the flowers had withered after CNY).

The florist named this 长寿果 (Fruit for longevity)… but frankly speaking, although we bought it a week before CNY and till now, the fruits still stay on the tree, firmly and beautifully. Worth the money paid for the plant! hehehe

Calamansi, this year we bought the 龙胆桔(dragon heart), bigger fruit than the normal one. Each year I was trying to stop them from buying this, because one day, the fruit will fall and we can’t grow back the fruit as beautiful as those florists do. Then, what happen to the plant next? Transfer to our terrace house, and you know, now my parking space is getting smaller because of those calamansi plants that we bought years back. Of course, I agree that those plants can bring out the CNY feel, especially when you decorate the plant with red ribbons. I think I should go study gardening to grow calamansi later on, maybe can make profit from it, since I have so many of them in my house.
