On this particular day, we sent a friend home and we got out to visit her garden.
She has a coffee tree growing in her garden. First time I see coffee fruits on the coffee tree. I came back with 2 plants and quickly planted them into pots in my garden.
1st plant is Tillandsia lindenii - the flower looks like a spade.
At the tip of the spade is a bluish or purple flower.
2nd plant I think is a Guzmania but I haven't seen the flower yet.

Dinner at the hawker centre.
Hubby ordered pork porridge.
I ordered pork + seaweed with rice vermicelli.
An old fashioned safe, a luggage bag or chest and hats placed on top of the safe.
When I look up into the night skies and
see the work of your fingers - the moon and the stars
you have made - I cannot understand how you can bother
with mere puny man, to pay any attention to him!
And yet you have made him only a little lower than the angels
and place a crown of glory and honor upon his head.
(Psalm 8:3-5, The Living Bible-TLB)
Wah! A coffee tree which is flowering. I had to look very closely to spot the coffee fruits, so interesting! You came back with two plants for your collection, so nice.
ReplyDeleteWow! The coffee tree is so pretty and it's great that you came back with 2 plants. I can't wait to see how they grow.
