Purple silk will come to no harm


The poor bonsai didn’t make it. The extreme tilt of the plant and heat combined so that it uprooted itself! No longer were the roots actually in the soil. It was time to give up on this maltreated bonsai.

Silk flowers that are so realistic that many people have mistaken them as an extravagant gift, now sit on my work desk. They were all of US$5 as a bunch and that includes the vase. No harm can come to the silk, despite the revoltingly hot, humid, stale air of an office that they share with me. Of course they are varied purple colours!
