Hello! I'm inviting everyone to come and visit NCCC Mall Hardwaremaxx Mother's Day Green Revolution event...

If you're looking for something different to give to your Moms on Mother's Day, a Cactus or Succulent would be a lovely idea especially for Moms who loves gardening and collect different variety of plants.

Our group, Cactus and Succulents Mindanao will be having a fund raising activity for our upcoming seminar/workshop. We will be selling cactus and succulents which will be displayed at "Thorns That Blooms" stall at the 2nd floor of NCCC Mall, just in front of Hardwaremaxx starting tomorrow, May 5 until May 31.

By the way, Harwaremaxx will also have a sale on selected gardening tools and supplies too. So, to those who are into gardening, better check them out starting tomorrow until the end of May.

We hope to see you there! ;)

If you have some tin cans on your home, you can use them as plant containers. We have a few tin cans from the luncheon meats that we bought at the grocery. So, I tried to recycle it. It's actually my first time to recycle a tin can and used it on my succulent plant. It turned out good and I am loving it!

You can use it as a table centerpiece or anywhere in your home or office, as long as it can get enough sunlight. It's also a great way to give as a gift to a succulent lover or use it as giveaways for parties or any events.

It was just easy doing this DIY recycled tin cans. If you already have the tin cans, the first thing you should do is remove the label, wash and clean it and let it dry.

When it's already dry, you can start making a few holes at the bottom of the tin cans. I used a hammer and nail on my recycled tin can.

Once it's done, you can start putting some little stones at the bottom for drainage. Then you can start adding the soil and your chosen succulents in it. You can also add some stones on the top soil as decorations. :)

You can make this DIY containers for any plants, I am so into cactus and succulents that's why I choose it on this container. If you are into cactus and succulents too and you live in Davao, you can join our group in Facebook which is Cactus and Succulents Davao and Cactus and Succulents Mindanao. :)

I just can't stop looking at these beautiful items that I found online and wanted to share this to everyone, especially those who loves Cactus and Succulents. If you're a cactus and succulent lover, like me, you know what I mean... These cactus and succulents items are really cute and it's good for home decorations, just like this Cactus Candles. Aren't they cute?

It's been a while since my last post because I've been busy with different events for "A" Creative Events. ;) I've been busy with my plants too, re-potting them after I got them during the SM Agro-Trade Fair last April of 2015. I think I bought around 10 kinds of cactus and succulents that time... hahaha! Well, we already have a few cactus at home which had been with us for around 5 years already although it's just one variety, it's from a Gymnocalycium specie... I think this is the most common cactus that you can see here in the Philippines... :)

The mother of all our cactus and the very first ones that we had... A Gymnocalycium anisitsii ssp. damsii...

Yup! It has a lot of babies and look at its roots! ;)

I was so lucky to have friends who gave me some cactus and succulents which I will be blogging, soon... ;)
