Tuesday, April 15, 2008




Mysury has been exposed to the world of flower ever since she was born into this delightful world, mainly because she’s has been taken care by her beloved grandmother during daytime who happen to be a very fond lover of flower and during those day, watching the grand lady nurturing those flower in her beautiful garden is the most tranquil feeling she could have –


Orchid, Jasmine , Gerberas, Roses, Morning Glory, Bougainvillea, Lilies, Cactus, and so much more that she could not recall all its name. Those were the days...Now going down the memory lane, Mysury is interested to share her favorites all time flower, if her grand lady is a lady of Jasmine, Mysury choice would be Carla Lily and Daisies, similarity of both is that it’s normally come in white, both represent strength and strong will power as it can last longer in the water once being plucked from it stems.


The character of both flower amazed her :-


*Carla Lily, a simple flower yet very elegant in manner it is being arranged, always the main focus of any arrangement and it just spoke for itself, a statement of its own.


*Daisy, a sweet looking flower that’s always a charm to anyone looking, looking pure and untouched with its white petals that overlap each other simply show that it’s a friendly flower and just fun to be with.
