propagating in the pineapple state...

I loved this indoor pineapple farm put together by Vicki (an artist you can see more on in the next post). Queensland is sometimes identified with pineapples which grow in abundance in this region north of Brisbane. Ginger and macadamia nuts are also well suited to this climate. I apparently arrived too late to see the dozen(s) of pinapple tops lined up in glass jars on the table. I loved trying to photograph these with my not so trusty camera ... (my intimacy with the instruction book is not significant either!)

Ok I think you get the picture... with or without good camera technique - and photo-shopping skills. There's something about seeing plants taking root like this that I find very compelling!
