Signs of Christmas...It's definitely getting to be that time of the year. Although we may see some malls starting to place display corners or show windows with Christmas, it's not yet full blast, as some stores realize that before they should go all out Christmassy, they should at least try to milk some cash form the public with Halloween.
Still, what some people try to deny, nature so often starts reminding us by way of having such plants bloom. This is a poinsettia - otherwise referred to some as the Christmas plant due to it's reddening leaves thus giving it the traditional Christmas colors of Red and Green. It happens to be a favorite plant to bring out the Christmas look, and apparently, they are already starting to show up in gardens and flower shops.
Further alluding to it's being a Christmas plant is the fact that the leaves only seeming turn red this time of the year - yup... definitely in time for Christmas. So yeah... even if it's still early early and Halloween is around the corner (not to mention All Saint's and All Soul's days and a near-ignored Barangay Election), it's nice to see these plants blooming - and though we may suspect shop owners' intentions for jumping into the Christmas celebration too early, how can we likewise think such of Nature and her impeccable internal clock?
