20th World Orchid Show Singapore

-->
This is the 2nd time that Singapore has hold the World Orchid Show and this is the no-hold-barrier for putting up such a  stunning reverie. I was lucky enough to get tickets for the 1st day of the Orchid show on the 13th Nov and the 20th Nov. The first day was to drool over all these beauties while they are fresh and beautiful from arrangement.

And the last day was to go crazy over buying these babies back home.





 
--> I was glad my parents have persuaded me to attend as they know I am a flower nut and probably would have kill myself for missing it.

Signing off,
Sandi

Eden Garden #1 A little Seed Lovin


It was years since I last received a handwritten letter and an acre of potential plants and tree seeds. Even a Gucci bag as present could not be compare to the joy of receiving a hand written letter with package of seeds from Argentina.(then again I dun like Gucci bag)

Laura was sweet enough to accommodate my request for wisteria seeds and on top of that send me a host of other seeds for bonsai, hibiscus and others. Love Love Love the seeds Laura.  




This reminded me of the times that I would eagerly await by the letter box for Mr Postman to deliver my letter from my penpal. Or the excitement of a package of dresses from Victoria Secrets or the time when I make online purchases for seeds. It’s like waiting for something good to come my way. That keeps me happy till I receive the intended. Once received, the excitement of growing them from seeds to plants to flower will extent the high to another week or two. Nothing like the good ole' fashion posting. Or maybe its just me.
