Poinsettias are green most of the time, except during winter time when the petals start to turn red . The common variety is the deep red ones. These are what we often see in gardens, windows or table tops around Christmas time.
One lovely day in November, I took a long stroll down south towards Route 2 and headed for the COOP Livin. This is one of my favorite shops in that area because of their affordable yet lovely household items. I often buy my pillowcases from this store.
The entrance to this store is my favorite spot - where they display the plants and garden things. This was what greeted me there that day.
I went closer to get a better look at these beautiful varieties of poinsettias . It was a feast for my eyes as I didn't know before that some of these plants come in pink and pale yellow!
I wonder what they did to these plants to make a "design" on these blooms!
Of all the varieties displayed there , this is my favorite. It has layers of petals in different shades of pink. I've never seen this lovely variety before.
I think my Mama and Lolo who had the green thumbs in the family would have been very elated to see these kinds of poinsettias.
But then, I believe all the beauty they're seeing now in Heaven is incomparable to all the magnificent flowers in the whole world!!!
