Red Rubies in Mygardenhaven

Ruby red heart of the dianthus...does that symbolize passion? Or could it be a burning fire of jealousy in one's heart?











Then there is the speckled ruby of my red vanda, wonder what this precious gem symbolizes...she is an awfully reliable bloomer and when one spray is spent another soon takes its place. Sometimes I get two new sprays! To me she represents constancy.

  1. Wow, I'm falling in love with your beautiful flowers. I've just started venturing into the gardening world and unfortunately, with limited space I have at home, I've chosen to pot my plants. *sigh* might as well. :D or else I'll most likely spend the whole day just doing relaxing gardening. I'm still learning how to care for the petunias, the mums (altho they're looking a bit strange) and anthuriums. Thank you for sharing! ☺

  2. Hey there Raine,how interesting that you, a writer aspiring to be a gardener, and I, a gardener-blogger aspiring to be a writer should meet. I've just completed my first piece of creative writing and am about to post it on my travel-inspired tales blog when I read your comments about finding my blog.Was wondering what writing memes I could join.
    Oh, and I love people who fall in love with mygardenhaven!
