Flower Today: Balloon Plant


The flower today is balloon plant or bladderbush,  in Indonesia we call it as 'Bunga Balon'.


It has rounded unique shape and hairy just like the fruit of 'rambutan'. Its colour is light green. But be careful, this plant has thick white sap like milk which supposedly toxic. This ornamental plant is often to be used in flower arrangements or table centerpieces or for wedding decor, though not as main flowers but as filler.
