Auspicious Plants for CNY



As it is Chinese New Year season, I will not post Sky Watch photo today. Instead I will continue to share photos of Chinese New Year for the next few days.

Today's posting show various plants that are being sold for its auspicious name/meaning during Chinese New Year. You can see lucky bamboo, lime, miniature pineapple and many others (unfortunately I don't know the names). Most of these plants are bought to decorate one's home during this festive season!

Dont we love to just window shop too during chinese new year. You get to see lots of things that are not available during other times. I took a lot of photos of the bamboo plants some are arranged in a heart shape, they really know how to attract customers.

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
