My dear Friends! Today I want to share some beautiful flowers from my collection. I really love plants, so I’m happy to show them.
The flowers are growing so well, and they are so nice to look at. I was thinking of moving them to line the side of the gate but I’m afraid they might die if I transfer them now. Maybe I will fix the area first before I move them.
I’m not sure if this plant is called Princess Flower but what I know is it always has blooms, like it never stops flowering. My sister even planted it as a fence around her chicken coop and it looks really nice there.
This one was given to me by my best friend, and I planted it myself. Now it has grown so beautifully and it almost looks like an artificial flower because of its bright color and perfect petals. I have already shared many cuttings with my neighbors and friends and they were glad to have it too.
My mother planted this flower a long time ago. Some people used Turnera ulmifolia in traditional medicine. They used its leaves or flowers to help with small wounds, swelling or other minor health problems. It is also called yellow alder or buttercup flower. The plant blooms almost all year which makes it very beautiful in my garden.
This plant also has many kinds with different shapes and sizes. Some are small bushes with pretty flowers, while others look like cactus with thick stems. If I’m not mistaken, one special thing about Euphorbia is its milky sap. This white sap is sticky and can irritate the skin or eyes so it’s better to be careful when touching it.
It is also called ( touch me not ) because its seed pods easily burst when touched, spreading the seeds everywhere, so it grows even without planting. The leaf of this plant is also used as medicine for wounds. People squeeze the leaf and apply the juice directly to the wound.
This plant grows naturally in sunny and dry places and still produces bright colorful blooms. The flowers come in many colors like yellow, orange, white, pink and purple but I only have two colors orange and yellow. I plan to ask my mother for the other colors so I can complete my collection. One interesting thing about African daisies is that their petals open wide in the sunlight and close when it is dark or cloudy.
This flower is also called the four o’clock flower because its blooms usually open in the late afternoon and stay open through the night. I think it’s a very unique and fun plant to have in the garden. My niece likes to watch it closely when the flowers begin to open. She even jokes that the plant has a mind of its own because it chooses when to bloom. I laughed and told her it’s just like people sometimes it acts differently, like it has its own mood.
I started planting flowers because I wanted to make my surroundings look nice but over time I realized they do so much more than that. Every time I step outside and see their bright colors I feel a little happier and more relaxed. Each day I enjoy watching new buds open and small leaves grow.
