Over the years, Mary and I have talked about the randomness of births -- how her cleaning lady Eneida could be a high end florist -- she just has a beautiful eye when it comes to creating arrangements out of what she finds in Mary's yard and pairing it with the perfect container. My cleaning woman Ana has a great eye for just arranging knick knacks and pillows -- these are little treats we get.
Today Eneida took a plant and made it a centerpiece for Mary's dining room table.
Does anyone know what this plant is? It has waxy leaves that are like scoops catching the water. Most of them are dark green with varying amounts of a creamy pink color, but there are a few gorgeous cream colored ones you see on the left. The stems extend long above the leaves and they're a dark, maroon color. Eneida didn't know a name for it, or didn't know the English name.
