Today's Flowers #4- Yellow Lilies in Our Garden

Good day to all! I am here again to share the Yellow Lilies from our garden. They are almost gone now. I guess they only last for around two to three weeks depending on the weather. I am happy that I have some photos as remembrance from these flowers. I am still waiting for more lilies to bloom in a few weeks..the one that I bought almost two weeks now. Have a blessed Monday to all.

TF#2- Pink Petunia in Our Garden

happy Monday everyone! My TF post is quite late but better late than never. Life has been so busy last weekend. Now I am sharing a petunia flower fresh from our garden. It is still wet as I took a picture last Friday. Flowers are always beautiful!

Petunia is a trumpet shaped, widely-cultivated genus of flowering plants of South American origin, in the family Solanaceae. The popular flower got its name from French, which took the word petun 'tobacco' from a Tupi-Guarani language. Most of the varieties seen in gardens are hybrids (Petunia x hybrida).

Today's Flower#42- Beautiful Guzmania

This blog is joining Today's Flower meme. Congratulation! Although this is it's first time to join, I still put the TF#42. Thanks to Luiz and company for hosting this very beautiful meme..as beautiful as the flowers that all participants share. feel free to join..simply click the logo below.

I have here a photo of a Guzmania, a family of the Bromeliad plants..isn't it lovely? I grew thousands of Bromeliads before but since I left home, I already sold it... some were left to my sisters. I hope to take photos of it once I go home this year.
Guzmania is a genus of epiphytes, the guzmanias. Several species of this genus are cultivated as indoor and outdoor garden plants. The best known is Guzmania lingulata (scarlet star) which bears orange and red bracts.

Guzmanias die after a plant has produced its flowers in summer, but new plants can easily be propagated from the offsets which appear as the parent plant dies. They are epiphytes and can do well if tied on to pieces of bark with roots bound into sphagnum moss.

Guzmanias require warm temperatures and relatively high humidity. The sac fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana (anamorph of Cochliobolus sativus) and others can cause fatal root rot in plants of this genus if the roots get too wet and cold. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guzmania

I guess I don't know the name of these lovely flowers...any ideas out there are very much appreciated...just don't have time to browse in my paper cut-outs..
