" A new Beginning "

the flowers are starting to bloom again,
despite the weather we've been having these days and
time does flies fast as now we're hitting the months of -ber already.

Photobucket

haven't got an inkling what kind of flower is this but it looks promising.

" The Pasig River "

A wasted graffiti on the side and some old lampposts,
come at night, the place literally looks like a ghost town.

Photobucket

I think these are Water Hyacinths/Lilies
and they seem to be thriving on polluted waters.

Photobucket

Surprisingly though, The river didn't smell bad at all...

" Go green "

when you don't know what to do with used plastic bottles and
just when it seems you were about to throw it into the trash...

I say: be creative. ^-^

" Glow in the dark "

Photobucket

Whenever I passed by the market area near where I live,
I'd see a pot or two of this plant for sale on the side of the street.
Curious, I asked the vendor for its name, but he seem bored and just gave me
a garbled word of some sort, so I asked the 2nd time, he just said,
it's a plant that glows in the dark, It's luminous.
so, there it is, another unknown plant. ^-^

if anyone has any idea what's it called? do share! ^0^\

" Cornered "

In one of my unfamiliar walks, there are these narrow alleyways that lead from one street to another that are mostly residential.

Photobucket

But not all of them look like this.
In fact, it's a friendlier version.
I like how the residents planted these greens that added more decor to a dull atmosphere and then makes it distinct from the others.

" Kutsarita "

Photobucket

so this is scientifically known as an Alternanthera-
a small group of dwarf, tender plants, native to tropical areas.

but I like how the common name " Kutsarita " can sound deceiving,
in our local language it simply means " teaspoon ". ^0^

" Correct me if i'm wrong "

It's a fact that I'm ignorant when it comes to plants.
I don't know a thing or two about them.
But I like how they look good on photos. ^-^
I saw this on a flea market and was curious why it's called " Euphobia ".
I find it a bit odd...
and of course I was right, it's supposed to be " Euphorbia! " ^0^

*Euphobia- fear of hearing good news, being afraid of something and
excited about it at the same time.

*Euphorbia- common name "spurge" derives from the french expurge (to purge).
One of the largest genera of flowering plants with approximately 2,000 species.
The genus is primarily found in regions of Africa and the Americas, but also in temperate
zones worldwide.

haha, now that's something new to me!
