January 4 2009, Bromeliads plant, Olympus E520
I would love to have Bromeliads in a garden in Japan- I do not think they are found much there. Interesting fact- Bromeliads are part of the pineapple family and they are native mainly to tropical parts of America.
I took this in my mum`s garden- she has some semi-tropical plants in her little back garden mixed in with her herbs and the like.
Plus some good news- the weather for Saturday is said to be mainly fine but a little cloudy! YAY!

I am just a twenty something Aussie girl living in Chiba, Japan with my Japanese husband trying to make sense of the crazy Japanese world we live in! We welcomed our first son in December 2009 (Noah) and a second son in January 2011, 2 months premature (Shion). I am working hard at raising them to be confident, bilingual, happy kids!
Yay! Decent weather for you on Saturday!!
Huzzah.
Oooh that plant is really pretty! And I LOVE pineapples! Hehe.

Can’t say I’ve seen on of those before, but it is amazing! How cool would it be to have those in your garden? Your mum must have a really green thumb!
