Remember Keatkeat brought back a plant from his trip organised by the school? He called it ‘Water-Plant’ then because he was told to water the plant everyday, so it was more like a convenient name.

Today, he asked me if I knew what’s the Real name of the plant. I remembered asking his teacher that very day Keatkeat held that small pot in his hands, but Mdm Normah had no idea.

Any plant experts out there? I haven’t got a clue how to search through Google on such matters, whereby I have nothing but photos. Does Google have a search engine that searches based on photos? *wink*

This is the bud before the flower blooms.

The leaves are pointy but not poky.

The leaves are spread-ed out nicely in the day but gathers together at night, as if they have fallen asleep.

This is the flower, looks a little like carnation.

So far, it’s just pink. Oh silly me, which plant would produce different colored flowers in the same pot.

Just like the leaves, it blooms in the day and closes up at night.

The flower is short-lived, usually less than 36 hours.

Any idea, anyone? Keatkeat would definitely send you his hugs and kisses over to you.

Answer: MOSS ROSE.

Tammy, Keatkeat sent his hugs and kisses to you on a Jet Plane! Thank you! *smile*
