This greenery, which is popularly known by the Chinese as 'Japanese Bamboo' (direct Chinese translation to English) tends to bear flowers at certain time of the year. February is the month by which it never miss bearing flowers - I tends to remember cos' it is the Chinese Lunar New Year. It will normally bloom before or during this festive season. However, with this year's festive season falls on January, so we didn't get to see it bloom during the CNY but still it blooms in February.
Here's some pictures of it which I've captured from small buds to the fully bloom beautiful flowers to share........
Mind you....... this plants have been with us for over 20 years and is still growing strong & green. Apart from feeding it with fertilizers, we water it with rice water, i.e. water used for washing rice. Once a while, in my free time I'll wipe it's leaves with a piece of damp cloth to get rid of the dust which clings to it. Always remember to show love to our plants so that in return it will also show it's love to us by bearing beautiful flowers and leaves....... "Human being have lives & so does plants!!"
