Bougainvilleas

As the weather gets hotter, I noticed that the bougainvilleas around the school compound are in spectacular blooms. At home, I don't see any flower-( bunga plastik je ada) so I just enjoy looking at the flowers around the school. The beautiful bougainvilleas are certainly a feast for the eyes! I was told by the school's gardener that those bougainvilleas have been around for more than 2o years and the school is 60 years old. There were mostly planted during the 80's and 90's when bougainvilleas used to be Malaysians favourite flower. Nowadays it's very hard to find Bougainvilleas in large cities. I think most people are more interested in Orchids. In Terengganu, I noticed that Bougainvilleas are still very popular. You would see lots of bougainvilleas at many homes in Terengganu especially in the villages.

menyejukkan mata di hari2 yg sgt panas ini..





found the name of this one-It's called Torch Glow

.
and this is called Raspberry Ice

There are also some hibiscus plants around the school. Hibiscus ni dah jadi mcm barang antik, nowadays. It's supposed to be our national flower but nobody is planting it, anymore. It is almost impossible to see it in large cities. In Terengganu it can still be found in the villages. I hope one day, I will plant all these beautiful flowering plants and bring colors to this world.
