This Orange little Flower, taken when i walking around, then a look at for this little flower, and their so rich colour, this really make me feel so comfort to see for a while, fortunately i carried my only one camera, and take this picture, and the result... still beauty to display on my wallpaper monitor.



Large strawberry field in Trinidad - outside Baguio City - Philippines. To grow from small plant to fruit bearing adult plant takes all year until next season. Meanwhile plants love rich and moist soil. Limited weeding and some mulching as organic fertilizer. Hence all year long some care every few weeks.
Strawberry plants survive easily frosty winters with very low temperatures far below freezing point. However bloom and harvest always is in warm season!

It's always interesting to earwig on conversations at a flower show, you can't really help it when there are so many visitors, and everyone's got their own ideas as to what makes a great show garden or exhibit. One comment I hear time and time again is how inspiring the gardens are and how they're going to try to copy 'that' colour scheme or 'this' style of planting. The thing that I'm going to take away and copy from this years show is not plants but paths. thyme_path.jpgThe back to back gardens are very good for hard landscaping ideas and I spotted a brick edged path in-filled with pebbles stuck into concrete, much like a mosaic. Or, there's a stone path with grass instead of mortar and something more contemporary, a metal grid suspended over a bog garden - almost like a bridge. However, the one that I'm going to copy at home is the path in 'The Garden for Bees'. It's a gravel path planted with an informal drift of thyme, which smells as good as it looks. The good news for me is that I've already got a gravel path, all I have to do is add the 'thyme' and once the flower show is over, I'll have the 'time' to do it.
