Hi again everyone…It’s Little Flo
here, long time no see u guys since I’m just arrived from my 5 months stay in
Bangkok, Thailand… hee… hee…
It’s been a very fun experience
there and since Thailand
is well known for their agriculture products such as fruits and of course
flowers and plants, I’m very lucky to had a chance to see some of them. Not
just for me, but also for you since I’ll be sharing some of the flowers and
gardens with all of you starting today!!!!!
Okay… this is the first flower
exhibition I attended, it is held in a mall called Central Plaza Rama III,
there are lots of central plaza in Bangkok ,
this one is on the Rama III road. I just want a little bit of sightseeing when
suddenly whoa!! There’s this flower installation in front of the mall, hum…
turns out there’s this exhibition called City Life City Garden going on inside…
there’s a mini park inside the mall with some exotic plants, lots of garden
installation by the local university students and don’t forget the business :
flower and garden market in the basement, so let’s take a look, shall we?
So, this small garden actually
located at one of the walkway bridge inside the mall. The grass is obviously
just a green carpet, but the hanging and potted plants are real…not a bad idea
to put some refreshment inside the mall…
Forget the boring gnome for your
garden statues…. this gorilla figurine is far more exciting! And not to mention
very tropical… you can see in the background the flower and garden market
below… enticing the crowd to come downstairs…
And now for the plants… some of
them are just the usual suspects at the garden, but looking closely, some of
them are obviously not in your ordinary garden. Just checked some of these rare
‘kantong semar’ varieties… never seen them before!!!
Want to check the rest of the
expo, I went downstairs where a stage for some performance had been installed….
check out the giant butterfly… made us feel like dwarfs in a giant’s garden.
Looking closely at the details,
the stage comprised of a large frame filled with a vertical garden, and a mini
garden inside…. different way in Indonesia where they just put the plants side
by side, here in Bangkok they arranged different types of plants with different
heights to make the garden look more real, love them!!!
On my next stop, I checked out
some cool and unique garden installation by the local university students,
these can be your garden inspiration people! Be patient for our next post in
this series : shabby chic garden theme !!
