Often seen - this combination of blue water lilies and water spinach (water morning glory). While lotus (previous picture) are too large as a shadow giver, the blue lotus is an ideal partner and apparently loves the same type of living conditions and environment.
See a close up photo from water spinach flowers - Cambodia.

Your true inner beauty is revealed when you fully open your heart. To open your heart you need to be willing to face God and prove love by actions of love toward all world. Opening of a heart always is the result of actions of love. No action = closed heart!

When I was a child I had no interest in gardening - it was an activity that kept my parents away from me for hours on end and so I resented it. I was amazed recently talking to two horticulturist friends of mine when they agreed that, as boys, the highlight of their week was watching Gardeners' World! It also seemed the influence of their grandparents was the important thing. I hear that my fellow blogger, Sam Youd, Head Gardener at Tatton Park has seven grandchildren under the age of six, I wonder how many of them will catch the bug?

If I were a child today, it would be a different story. I'd be counting the days til my day out at this year's Tatton Park show.

Children are admitted free and the RHS have made sure there are plenty of stimulating and fun ways to introduce them to the world of horticulture.

If your children are very young and you don't want to spend the day buying and then mopping up, ice cream, there's lots of hands-on playing activities to amuse them. They can make animals out of vegetables, do floor puzzles and have fun getting dirty messing about with earth, plus a few worms if they're lucky. Arts About Manchester are planning a circus style tent plus a balloon garden and will be showing a screening of Bee Movie, which might be a welcome chance for a sit down (and a snooze) for tired parents.

One of the show gardens, Edible Trends is giving away pumpkin plants to the first 100 children to visit the garden, so that they can grow them for Halloween. If you miss that and you're feeling peckish, try the Waitrose outdoor kitchen, where your budding Jamie Oliver can have a go at creating a salad lunch.

For teenagers, the floristry tent might offer some unexpected inspiration. The floral jewellery workshops might offer something for even the most disaffected youth - and if you remember the spectacular hats at Chelsea, the results could be amazing.

Artistic teenagers might also be inspired by Jack Dunckley, the 16-year-old, medal-winning, garden designer (silver medal at Hampton Court this year). Take them to have a look at the gardens in the Young Designer of the Year category, you never know, they might want to have a go.

A beautiful decoration of the surrounding rice fields. This lily pond is like a piece of natural God made jewelry well preserved by its owner-farmer for the entire farm land around.
People love to add some fancy colors to their God made beauty to feel good. Nature too loves if you add some beauty to all the production farmland or garden.
Use about one third of your total garden or farm land just for such beautiful wild pieces of nature, ponds, little jungle areas, wild grass, wild herbs and wild flowers, etc.
Result: A happy garden, a happy nature stronger, healthier and well balanced in energy. Thus no more need for any kind of chemicals or artificial fertilizer or any other artificial products.
Successful organic gardening and farming needs such pieces of true beautiful wilderness amidst all productive land. Be generous with the percentage of land offered to God and nature! The reward is infinitely well worth your generosity in love toward nature. Whatever you do to nature - you also do to God and you as well.
For your information: The rice plants around this pond is about 1.80 meter high .... Strong, healthy and totally free of any chemicals or fertilizer.
In the Philippines typically the rice plants are far less than have the size and all living on abundance of chemicals even in most remote provincial areas. Why? Because chemicals is good for the marketing people all the way. It gives profits selling, later it brings profits to pharmaceutical industry because all people more and more sick needing medical care ... means it also is good business for medical insurance because people can be convinced to buy insurance if you first poison an entire population until all have all kinds of medical problems or health issues.
God however made all nature just like jungle - to grow strong and healthy all the way natural. You just need to know how by learning from nature, by observing nature, by copying nature, by asking God for inspiration!

Today I went along to the back to back garden called The Lunch Hour Garden to catch up with Sue Beesley, one of our previous Gardener of the Year winners. Since winning the competition Sue has gone from being an IT consultant to nurserywoman and gardening guru. She gives talks, writes for two magazines and does radio and television for her local region; in fact she's so much in demand that she has had to employ a PR agency this year!

the_lunch_hour_garden.jpgSue tells me that her nursery (www.lodgelane.co.uk) is coming along well, it's hard work and not very lucrative as yet, but she loves it and is building a strong client base. Ideally she would like to concentrate on the nursery work in the spring and summer and write in the winter - sounds perfect.

The show garden she has created with her co-designer Isabelle Brooke is the sort of garden that we all wish offices would provide for their workers - a lovely, plant filled space for eating, meetings and getting away from your desk when you're having a bad day! It's quite a big garden, double the size of the other back to backs and I wondered if Sue and Isabelle would be having a go at a big show garden, at Chelsea perhaps? Given their progress so far, I wouldn't be surprised.

If you fancy following in Sue's footsteps and taking part in BBC Gardener of the Year download an application form today and send it in before next Wednesday.
