Insane flower prices

When the warm weather is still a little while away, I’m always looking around for some great flowers to keep my heart content, while adding a bit of color and aroma to my home. There is a small floral shop down the street from my house where I typically by my flower bouquets. Lately I’ve noticed that her prices seem to keep going up while the number of flowers you get looks like it’s going down. So, given this information I decided to venture out and look at some more flower locations.

Extinct plant species

We all know that many animals have become extinct, but did you know there are several plant species that have become extinct? I didn’t know too much about this until I did my own research and found out that plants have been recognized as extinct that were once around over 3000 years ago. I thought it was interesting to learn about these plants and wanted to pass on the information. Because there are thousands of plants that are extinct, I will just name a couple of the wild species to begin with.

The Mango Magic flower

Some of you may have already heard of this flower, but for me this is a new discovery that has me absolutely smitten. It is called the Mango Magic flower and it is by far one of the most beautiful I have found to date. The flower has quite a unique look that makes it different from others I have found in the past.

The endangered Jade vine

There are many types of rare flowers throughout the world. Some we know about and some are found so deep in the rainforest that we are yet to even know of their existence. I often think about these unknown plants and wonder if they hold the key to the many cures our world has been searching for. I am very big into natural medicine and I think this earth has everything we need to heal, growing right on it. One rare flower that I enjoyed learning about it called the Jane vine.
