NURSERY PLANTS

This is a range of amazingly beautiful plants in our nursery.

I am not sure if the first is a yellow flower Pachypodium? The clumps of different cultivars of Tillandsia are so eye-catchingly stunning!


The white flower Acanthaceae weed may not be very attractive but it is certainly unique. In the heart of a bromeliad was found the flowers. There was also a variegated Iris with interesting leaves and wonderful flowers

PACHYPODIUM

Wow, this is the first time I saw the flowers of the Pachypodium. The leaves and flowers remind me so much of the Plumeria species (common name: Frangipanni) and Adenium obesum (common name: Desert Rose), but it shouldn't be a surprise since they are all from the same Family Apocynaceae, apart from its nasty-looking spine-bearing trunk.
