Special Occasions call for a special Gift….
... Gift of a Plant
One could always SAY IT WITH FLOWERS only, but for a change I thought I would say it with FLOWERS and make it extra special by saying it with a PLANT as well.
So, last weekend, I indulged myself a wee bit and got creative to ‘Gift a Plant’.
Here’s the material that I used:-
- A teeny-tiny Juniper, that I had picked up while on a Nursery visit recently;
- A shallow tray used for Miniature Landscaping, which I had picked up from my Bonsai Guru Mrs Santosh Arora, also President Avadh Bonsai Association, Lko;
- A piece of driftwood, lying unused in the store room, since the last few years;
- Wire mesh, n thin Aluminum wires to tie the driftwood and the plant together.
- Bonsai Medium Soil, Peat Moss n Sphagnum Moss
- Pot-pourri of “GIFT A PLANT’ thoughts, idea’s, creative endeavor n effort et al
This virtual ‘GIFT of a PLANT’ is for each and every blogger visiting EVERGREEN TREE.
Personally, I love Flowers and all kinds of Flowers from the Daffodils to the Daisy’s, Carnations, Gerbera, Roses, Birds of Paradise, Lilies, Anthuriums, Jasmines, Marigolds, Dahlia’s, Bottlebrush, Pansies, Portulaca, Chrysanthemums, Ixora’s, Crype Myrtel, Amalthas, Gulmohar, Bougainvillea, Poppies, Adenium, Salvia’s, Ageratum’s, Heliconia, Bilbergia’s, Frangipani, Peony, Hibiscus…..
I have been saying it…. ever too often, with ONLY FLOWERS, so just this once, I thought, I would do something DIFFERENT and convey my fondest n heartfelt wishes with a Plant!
Hope each one of you here like your e-Gift of a Plant.
PS: To add a special GREEN Zing to one corner of the verandah, I have placed this NATURE IN MINIATURE on an earthen stool, right at the entrance of the house.
The real ‘Gift of a Plant’ is for my Mother, on her Birthday today.
