Visting a Garden Center

 Visiting a Garden Center 


During my visit to the Huston Garden Center over Thanksgiving break, I had the chance to explore a beautiful variety of flowers and plants. Among the notable flowers were types like Iceberg, Laguna Arborose, Summer Romance Parafuma, and Raspberry Cupcake, which stood out for their distinct colors, fragrance, and unique appearances. In addition to these, the photographs provide evidence of the vibrant display of plants, including lush greenery and colorful blooms.






From the images, I also observed other flowers such as roses, which were elegantly displayed with their delicate petals and rich hues. Some of the roses in pale green shades appeared fresh with droplets of water, showcasing their pristine quality. Additionally, there were brightly colored Christmas Cactus (Schlumbergera), with vibrant red and pink blossoms. These seasonal plants are commonly grown during the winter holidays and are admired for their long-lasting, cheerful flowers.

I also saw vibrant yellow chrysanthemums, which are a classic fall flower known for their dense, rounded blooms and striking golden color. These flowers are often associated with the cooler seasons and are popular for both gardens and decorations. Other plants, including various ornamental greens and shrubs, were on display with signage highlighting discounts and promotions, such as “70% off regular price.”

Overall, the Huston Garden Center offered a diverse selection of plants, ranging from blooming flowers to ornamental greenery, perfect for both seasonal decorations and year-round gardening. The visit provided a wonderful experience to see how nature's beauty is carefully cultivated and displayed.

 Visiting a Farm  During the visit to the active farm, I observed a variety of crops being grown, including fruiting vegetables and leafy greens. In the first image, the farm is cultivating okra ( Abelmoschus esculentus ), a tall plant with elongated green pods. Okra thrives in warm climates with ample sunlight and is commonly used in dishes like soups, stews, and stir-fries. It is rich in vitamins A, C, and antioxidants, making it a highly nutritious crop. In the second image, there are tomato plants ( Solanum lycopersicum ), likely a cherry tomato variety, with small green and ripening fruits hanging on the vines. Tomatoes require support structures such as stakes or cages to keep their branches upright and are typically grown in warm, sunny conditions. Known for their high vitamin C and lycopene content, tomatoes are widely used in fresh salads, sauces, and snacks. The third image features collard greens ( Brassica oleracea var. acephala ), a leafy vegetable with broad, bl...
