Happy Morning from Malaysia! Goodday...Hi, everyone. Happy Morning from Malaysia! Goodday! <br /><br />This is my second post on the mickey mouse plant has yellow flowers. The it turns red when the fruits are ripening. Actually the reds are bracts. The fruit 'berries' will turn from green to black. I'm sorry I still can't get the black berries picture yet. <br /><br />According to Dr. Francis Ng, this plant just sprung up from the soil, the seeds were probably hidden in the soil when they were bringing in other plants into The Secret Garden. Currently, he has 2 mickey mouse plants there. I think this is heaven sent. Hopefully, I get to photograph the mickey mouse look alike soon, haha!<br /><br />I like Disney's Mickey Mouse cartoon when I was a kid. My daughter liked the Mickey Mouse Club and Britney Spears then. So I love this mickey mouse plant too. An interesting find for me.Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660561043857404056.post-22202528461986376002010-02-10T08:31:24.366+08:002010-02-10T08:31:24.366+08:00Very pretty post!
