Because I keep pruning it to prevent it from becoming woody and overgrown, it doesn’t bloom.
Still, I really love this green.

Last year’s bulb, which I planted in soil after the flowers had finished in water culture, has bloomed again.
They say it usually won’t bloom, but… 👍

A teddy bear doesn’t have a strict definition—it generally refers to any stuffed bear.
Famous teddy bear brands include Steiff from Germany, Merrythought from the UK, and Hermann Teddy from Germany.
Branded teddy bears can be quite expensive.
Mine isn’t from a brand, but it is well loved.

The stems are a little short, but the flowers have plenty of volume.
The pink has ended up mixed with some red.

The Christmas poinsettia still looks like this.
It decorates the room for several months.

The high-rise building in the center is Park Court Shibuya The Tower, a 39-story condominium tower.

It was a wonderful stage performance with a gorgeous cast: Ikusaburo Yamazaki, one of the three princes of the musical world, Yudai Furukawa, popular for his tall stature and sweet looks, and Rio Asumi, former top star of the Takarazuka Flower Troupe.

This is a local specialty from Toyama that I received as a souvenir.
It was delicious.

I haven’t been good at growing succulents, but I’m hoping this year they will grow well.
I’m looking forward to it.

The flowers are a little small, but they are cute in their own way.
It would have been nicely balanced if the red had come to the center.
