Poinsettias..

..Ever since I came to US I m in love with this plant .. the leaves itself are like cluster of flowers ..they speak for them self .. such vibrant beautiful colors hard to take your eyes off .. I was in Grocery store other day I felt like ..are they artificial? touching and getting a feel of texture ..the sparkles spread on them makes them even more prettier .. no doubt they stand for Christmas celebrations and invite everyone towards themselves.
Unaware of this plant.... to me its an Exotic one.. but rare ,pleasure to my eyes. Any color you pick its u unique..
My favorite one is RED ../burgundy but pumpkin orange is something I love too.
Purple was one I fell my eyes on and thought look at the richness .. seems like color pallet in front of me ..I touched the leaves again ,, the girl at grocery store looked at me and smiled .. "may I help you"
I said "oh no no I m jus trying to select the color .. thanks "
Am I paranoid ..what the heck am I doin.. looks awful.. quietly picked up the flowers I liked and went to ring them up.. 
Poinsettias have been always my favorite..

Flowers!

.Flowers....something I am in love with..I always dream t of opening a nursery of plants and flowers... most of the pocket money was spent in buying flowers or fresh green indoor plants ..it was a passion though expensive one!! ....

Roses are the favorites ..coming to US I was surprised to see quality and colors of specially roses..spending hrs in grocery stores near the floral section and admiring them...my hubby bringing fresh roses ... a delight ....then came Carnations ..beautiful colors and texture...in flowers...

.
.Holland I visited near Michigan to see tulip festival...farms full of various colors of tulips.. I felt like "Alice in wonderland"

In India my favorites were Chrysanthemums ..usually seen in winter season...our school garden was full of them ..huge big spongy flowers ..with lot of colors..white looks divine in them....
Cosmos ..another one ,its like a giraffe flower ..long neck and parallel flowers on the neck...Purple looks awesome in those kind!
..I had been to Tennessee for vacation last yr at smokey mountains..I was surprised to see wild flowers on the valley and hills ..purple ,yellow and baby pink..like decorated valleys and lush green trees surrounded by them..A MUST SEE!!

Every flower has a meaning and history behind it..where it came from?,but flowers are used for different moods and occasions...People who don't like flowers I personally feel are very dry in nature!!

Summers are here ..yesterday driving across I could see the whole street in pink and white floral trees decorated by the city .... dreamy kinda atmosphere created on streets...
Downtown baskets of all kinds of flowers are hung on the corners ..so very fresh look has been given by every city..to make it beautiful..




.NO wonder summer is HERE!( in spite of the chill)
