Temple garden of memories creamtory






Multiple floating homes attached to a single tree. Floating family business and floating family boats all attached to a tree. Tonle Sap floating village - Cambodia.
In the floating village you find all a regular village has to offer. Restaurants, mechanical shops, all kind of floating businesses a community needs. Often grouped like here in this picture a few different floating homes attached to each other or fixed to a tree.

Floating water plants around floating homes. Just like other houses may have grass or flowers in their surrounding garden, the floating village has floating water plants. Often a few house boats are grouped around a single tree.
If ever you travel to Cambodia and Siem Reap - then enjoy a tour by boat to the floating village. best time is late afternoon hours just before sunset.
More pictures from same province Jungle wallpaper and some travel information Cambodia may motivate you for a visit to the kingdom of lotus flowers.

The Notes of Music

Late afternoon on Tonle Sap lake - a peaceful village scenery picture on Asia's largest fresh water lake.

I don't generally approve of plants in houses - they never look quite comfortable, not in my home, at least. I've been lucky enough to travel to places where Ficus benjamina are the size of oak trees and Monstera deliciosa are climbing towards a forest canopy. For me it just doesn't feel right to grow them next to the TV.

The Hawaiian palm (brighamia) is not so much a jungle escapee desperately pining for the rainforest - it's more of an endangered species in need of fostering. Raised from seed by Dutch nursery Plant Planet, these beautiful plants can be grown happily in your living room. And as there are only seven specimens left in the wild, the IUCN is desperate to bring attention to them.

That's a pretty good reason to grow one. They need little watering and have the added bonus of flowering in deepest, darkest winter. I think I have the perfect spot in mind.
