When pandemic exploded, I started to collected different kinds of flowers here in our place and gladly their are lots of Plantitas, Doing some barter or selling the plants they have. The first photo that I am going to share is the butterfly flower. It contains bright white color with a small yellow portion at the middle. Its stalks are very thin and can easily broke even in a strong wind. Insects loves to fly around because of the flowers, it sucks those pollen and sweet liquid of the flowers and pollinate to other place of plants.

📸 Newly Bloomed Santan Flowers:

I really surprised about the newly bloomed santan flowers I have here and gladly I collected different kinds of colors. Santan flowers contains different kinds of colors like Pink, Red, yellow and Orange and luckily I have each kind. This is also good for landscapes decorations even in Bonsai planting. This kind of flowers is also good for making braceletes and necklaces, just connect or attached those small stalks of one another until it formed into a big circle. It also contains a sweet liquid or honey and insects like bees loves it.

📸 Cat's - eye Flower:

I really don't have any ideas why other plant takers called it by its name. But every place contains different names on it. The flowers has its wonderful and fascinating petals contain black colors on each side. Lots of tiny yellow pollens can be seen at the middle of its petals and also good for landscapes porpuses. There are few colors of this flowers and this are Yellow, Pink, Purple and White. This is classified in wild plants family but the flowers can make it really more attractive. It can survived in an intense heat and can easily propegate.

📸 Money-Maker flower:

Well, the name is very unique and I was very curious about it. I asked somebody who knows well about plants and they said that this flower can predict the wealth situation of owner. If this flower blooms in color Yellow, means a few money can be recieved and if the flower will bloom into red color means a lot of money will come. Luckily the flowers I have contains lots of red colors, I hope it will true. Everytime when this flowers dried, the seeds will turned into color black and it can be abled to plant to produced another young money-maker plants.

📸 Fire-splash Flower:

This is also a kind of wild flowers that can be seen in the forestry areas and mountainous places. I tried to plant here at the yard and very surprisingly it grows and stabled in fact there are lots of small white flowers on it. Each stalks can hold almost hundreds of small flowers. Bees and other kinds of insects loves to fly here because of the sweet liquids or honeys on each flowers.

📸 Succulents Plant:

Succulents also have different kinds of shapes, styles, colors and sizes. This succulents of mine is very fascinating because it contains small leaves on each tip of the big leaves. It served as sprouts and when it falls to the soil this will grows bigger. Those matured leaves from this plant can also be planted and grows into a new one.

📸 Porcupine Cactuses:

Thorn plants like cactus is also very fascinating because of its shapes, colors and sizes. The thorn of this cactuses are very dangerous that is why I decided to placed away from children's reach. Honestly, I really don't like collecting cactus but My Husband did. Plants contains lots of fascinating stories and it is truly important and contributes to the Nature.
