Vibrant Living


A cheerful heart blooming..

Shower within and out glowing..


"For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song of bird, and hum of bee;
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!"
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Desert Rose(Adenium)

Have a bright and cheerful week!

Mother Nature's an artist and these flowers are certainly one of the best creations by her. So much thoughts gone into the creation. Wonder what if there wasn't a gradient and the flowers would have been flat colored?

We've just come home from a holiday which included Utah and Nevada but didn't see any desert roses! Do they grow wild, or were we just too late?

So that's a dessert rose ... I bought one at an end-of-summer sale and kept it indoor, sadly, it's not looking very healthy. Hopefully, it will show me a sign of life in the spring.

The pink stands out so sharp and pretty! You know, I really never payed much attention to Ralph Waldo Emerson, but now I do-The words always seem to be consistantly poignant- thanks Regina-

Ann said...

Is the plant yours? In Malaysia, they like to cut the stems to encourage a thick main stem. Do you do it in Philipines.
