  • yogi tea plants

     
     
    We have Yogi Tea now @Green e books.
    Mayan Cocoa Spice, Classic Indian Spice, St. Jons Wort, Lemmon Ginger, Moon Cycle, Tahitian Hazel Nuts, Mexican Sweet Chile, Coconut delight and Moroccan Orange Spice.
     
    I haven't updated here for so long except ad. .
    2009 is already half done.  Wow It is so fast!
    This year plants in my apartment started to grow all the sudden...
    It is said that plants generates the energy in our home, so when we are dead tired,
    instead plants sucks bad energy from us, so they die.
    Even we water them, put under the sunlight or even take care a lot.
     
    This year, I am in good condition. Healthy in body and mind. 
    So all plants are responding me as they got reflection from me.

    In Feng Sui, plants plays very important role in the house.
    Plants don't talk, but they know.  They just know everything.
    They know who they like, who gives attention to them, and they don't like to be
    shuffled around the place.  Once they like the place and started to grow, they
    hate to be moved to another part.
     
    The photo it is called "Watermelon Pepelomia" in here in Japan. Leaves looks like watermelon...
    this guy doesn't like to be fed at all.   Almost no need of water for a week.
    Neither sunlight, seems like this guy doesn't like to be cared much.... :)
     
    Plants are interesting... !
