Wordless Wednesday Holiday Wish

Merry Christmas

and a

Prosperous New Year!

P.S.: I originally thought these are obviously Christmas lanterns, thanks to Donna of gardenwalkgardentalk, i was allerted to divert from Wordless Wednesday to describe this. Creativity in this part of the world made the abaca fibers colorful and transformed them into these colorful Christmas lanterns. Abaca plants (Musa textilis) is widely grown in Bicol Region in the Philippines where this could probably be just the trimmings. Abaca is the material made into the world famous Manila hemp. For those who don't know abaca fibers, they come from abaca plant, which looks like our normal banana. Abaca plants are planted for the fibers unlike the fruits from the bananas.

An Unusual Unique Bouquet

Hibiscus for Wordless Wednesday

Thanks to Dr. Pablito Magdalita, the biotechnologist and Hibiscus breeder who got these flowers from his collections and made this bouquet. He said if i go there i can choose one plant i like best, except for the blue one! What about that friends! Maybe some of you are envious.

I am giving this as a gift to my Malaysian blogfriends Autumn Belle, Stephanie, Jacqueline, Bangchik and James Missier. This is a descendant of their National Flower which is the red hibiscus.
