Sudah lama sekali sy tdk menginap di VB. Saat ini, diawal tahun seperti ini yang biasanya hujan sudah dua minggu tdk turun hujan. Persediaan air tetap ada tapi air terjun didalam hutan sudah kering. Hiks... sedih yah.

Namun enaknya, kita bisa berenang sepanjang hari. Cuaca yang cerah dengan sinar matahari yang banyak hm... kenapa gk menyempatkan diri untuk nyemplung di kolam. Air dingin + hangatnya matahari = mantap!

Awas Paningal diambil dari bahasa Sunda yang artinya pamandangan yang luas. Jika berada di &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Vila Botani, &lt;/span&gt;kita bisa melihat pemandangan yang terbentang luas disekitar &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Vila Botani&lt;/span&gt;.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Udara bersih bersebelahan dengan hutan pinus di Taman Nasional Halimun Salak, sungguh tempat yang tenang jauh dari kebisingan kota, hanya terdengar suara burung, air yang mengalir dan gemerisik dedaunan. Daerah ini juga merupakan rumah untuk Elang Jawa yang dilindungi. &lt;/span&gt;

Stasiun Bogor&gt;&gt; naik angkot 02 atau dari terminal Bogor jalan kaki kearah Ramayana. Ganti naik angkot 04A jurusan Tajurhalang. Berhenti di pertigaan depan SDN 02 Tajurhalang. Sambung naik ojek ke BAP (bekas gudang kopi) dekat patung Garuda. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
&lt;/br&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Kendaraan pribadi:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/b&gt;


Pastikan kendaraan anda dalam keadaan bagus. Memasuki pertigaan Cijeruk jalanan mulai menanjak. Hati-hati ada jalanan menanjak yang langsung menikung tajam. Jalan aspal cukup mulus tapi harus berhati-hati dengan angkot dan motor yang melaju kencang. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Memasuki desa Tajurhalang dan melewati menara tinggi, anda harus hati-hati karena tidak jauh dari gerbang rumah pak Hatta ada 1 tanjakan dengan belokan yang sangat tajam. Selanjutnya jalanan mulai menanjak hingga patung Garuda. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Bagi anda yang baru pertama kali, sebaiknya tidak datang setelah jam 6 sore pada musim hujan. Kabut tebal akan turun dan menyulitkan anda melihat keadaan jalan dalam gelap. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;

&lt;div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;

&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Ini adalah aula tempat pertemuan sekaligus tempat untuk tidur. Tersedia 25 buah kasur, bantal dan selimut. Ruangan disekat dengan tirai dan berkelambu sehingga dapat digunakan oleh laki-laki dan perempuan. &lt;/div&gt;




&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffXFRd2LWI/AAAAAAAABDM/R_9pKSdgks4/s1600-h/aula+1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329965169604177250" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 268px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffXFRd2LWI/AAAAAAAABDM/R_9pKSdgks4/s400/aula+1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;




&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;Anda yang ingin bertenda bisa membawa tenda dan dipasang dibeberapa tempat disekitar aula. Kami memang tidak menyediakan tenda karena itu anda harus membawanya sendiri.&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;Jika anda memang memutuskan untuk membawa tenda dan tidak menggunakan aula kecuali dapur, anda akan mendapatkan potongan harga. Jelasnya hubungi staf Vila Botani.&lt;/div&gt;

Kami menyediakan dapur lengkap dengan kompor gas, peralatan masak dan makan. Silahkan anada memasak sendiri. Selain itu ada juga alat pembakaran sehingga anda bisa membakar ikan ataupun jagung sambil ngobrol dengan teman.


















Dapur ini menyatu dengan meja makan dengan design seperti di warung desa. Rasanya nikmat sekali, menyantap makanan sambil memandang kearah hutan pinus ataupun pemandangan gunung dan kota Bogor.&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffV5pGa0uI/AAAAAAAABDE/qNBBVfsMVyM/s1600-h/dapur+2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329963870278308578" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 268px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffV5pGa0uI/AAAAAAAABDE/qNBBVfsMVyM/s400/dapur+2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Tamu perlu berjalan sedikit untuk mencapainya. Toilet dilengkapi dengan pancuran dari air gunung yang terasa sejuk ketika kita mandi dibawahnya, rasanya tidak berbeda seperti mandi dipancuran ditengah hutan.

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;1 toilet lagi terletak disamping aula namun tidak tersedia pancuran. Toilet ini adalah alternatif bagi tamu yang tidak ingin berjalan ke toilet taman atau ada kalanya juga hari hujan maka tamu yang menginap bisa menggunakan toilet ini.

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Vila Botani terletak ditepi hutan Pinus yang dikelolah oleh Perhutani. Pohon ini belum lama ditanam baru sekitar 10-15 tahun yang lalu. Jika kita berjalan lebih kedalam menyusuri jalan setapak maka kita akan melihat pohon lokal dan pakis yang tumbuh disana- sini. Tidak perlu takut kesasar karena jalan setapak ini sering dilewati oleh penduduk yang akan pergi keladangnya dikaki gunung. Ada juga petani yang menanam nanas didalam hutan. &lt;/div&gt;

Pak Asep akan memandu anda, di Vila Botani tugas utama beliau adalah mengurus tanaman langka dan obat. &lt;/div&gt;


Informasi jelas mengenai jasa guide, silahkan hubungi Pak Jay - kordinator Vila Botani.

&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Pencinta sepada gunung juga melewati hutan ini sebagai salah satu trek mereka. Ada kedamaian yang terasa didada jika berada didalam hutan, sesuatu yang rasanya susah kita dapatkan jika berada di kota besar... &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Letak saung ini agak ke atas dan sesuai dengan namanya Saung Nyepi, saung ini memang disiapkan untuk siapa saja yang ingin sendiri menyatu dengan alam. Letaknya yang jauh diatas dan dekat sekali dengan hutan membuat tempat ini sangat tenang dan sunyi.



Saung ini juga biasa digunakan sebagai tempat  melepas lelah setelah capek treking di hutan.

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Dimusim hujan ketika air mengalir dengan deras, bermain di air terjun adalah suatu kesenangan tersendiri. Air yang dingin dan jernih mengalir dari gunung Salak.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/br&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Ada 3 air terjun di dekat vila Botani dengan tingkat ketinggian yang berbeda-beda. Air terjun yang letaknya paling jauh adalah yang paling tertinggi sedangkan yang terletak di tidak jauh dari vila adalah yang terendah yang mengalir diantara bebatuan&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffeAFV5dqI/AAAAAAAABDk/C9L6tQXe0mU/s1600-h/air+terjun+1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329972777031661218" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 268px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffeAFV5dqI/AAAAAAAABDk/C9L6tQXe0mU/s400/air+terjun+1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;

April - September: musim panas.


Air terjun di dekat vila biasanya kering.


Musim ini adalah waktu yang tepat untuk melakukan kegiatan di hutan karena tanah tidak becek.


&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffZjllCaqI/AAAAAAAABDc/brjdkC72LcU/s1600-h/awan+tebal.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329967889422379682" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SffZjllCaqI/AAAAAAAABDc/brjdkC72LcU/s400/awan+tebal.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

















&lt;/br&gt;

Akhir September - Akhir Maret: musim hujan.
&lt;/br&gt;
Biasanya pagi hari matahari bersinar dan setelah jam 2 langit mulai mendung dan hujan akan turn lebat di sore hari.

Air terjun akan mengalir dengan deras. Sebaiknya gunakan waktu untuk bermain air di pagi atau siang hari.


&lt;p&gt;Suhu terendah 19 &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; C di pagi hari bulan January.
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Nama daerah atau- orang lokal biasa mengatakan pasir, tempat villa ini berdiri adalah Awas Paningal (Bahasa Sunda) yang artinya Pemandangan yang indah atau luas.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;


&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Bisa dimengerti karena pemandangan yang terlihat disini memang benar-benar indah. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SflddHk1W2I/AAAAAAAABGc/FUqdcXpqK0U/s1600-h/P1000216-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330394388800822114" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 225px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SflddHk1W2I/AAAAAAAABGc/FUqdcXpqK0U/s400/P1000216-1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Jika kita berdiri didepan pintu di Vila Botani maka jika kita menengok kebelakang maka di belakang kita ada gunung Salak lalu ada hutan disamping kiri kita, dan didepan kita ada pemandangan kota, jika kita memiringkan badan kita adak menyamping ke kanan, ada gunung Pangrango dan Puncak. Sunguh indah... &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;


&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Pemandangan indah ini sayang sekali jika tidak diabadikan dengan kamera sebagai kenangan..

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;



&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SJANcQHwOgI/AAAAAAAAAi4/0CICVFdkrlc/s1600-h/DSC_0029.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;


&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;-------------------------------&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;


Catatan Jackie:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Berulang kali saya datang kesini tapi rasanya ada saja hal-hal baru yang ingin saya abadikan. Melangkahkan kaki menyusuri vila dan sekitarnya, saya pasti akan menemukan hal-hal indah untuk dipotret: Bunga, burung, penduduk lokal, hutan, ladang.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;....sunguh tidak membosankan...
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/br&gt;

&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Jika anda beruntung, burung elang hitam Jawa akan melayang rendah berputar-putar diatas vila mencoba mencari makan, tunggu apa lagi? segera tangkap dengan kamera anda. &lt;/div&gt;

October 2008 - Prewedding photography for Dey and Dave &lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331190278963118946" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 268px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/SfwxUBecw2I/AAAAAAAABH8/AEffLUryNTQ/s400/DSC_04051.jpg" border="0" /&gt;







&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Lokasi dipilih disekitar vila, kebun bunga dan hutan. &lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div&gt;


Sebenarnya saya ingin sekali memotret di air terjun, saat itu air sedang mengalir dengan deras. Sayangnya model - Dey tidak terbiasa masuk hutan, rasa takut akan binatang dan suasana yang hening menjadi alasan utama menolak ide untuk difoto disitu. &lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div align="justify"&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;



&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Namun begitu, saya cukup puas dengan hasil foto, begitu juga calon pengantin.&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div align="justify"&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;

Penduduk sekitar yang tidak memiliki lahan yang luas, menanam bunga dihalaman rumah mereka. Pembeli yang lewat bisa mendapatkan bunga dengan harga dibawah harga pasar. Bunga yang terdapat di Vila Botani kebanyakan adalah bunga lokal atau bunga tropis yang umum ditemukan dibanyak tempat di Indonesia. Bunga teratai dengan warna merah muda dan putih selalu berbunga sepanjang tahun. Kami meletakkannya dikolam didepan vila.

The population in central Sumatra, between 1° 40' and 2° 06' S latitude, is the only natural occurrence of any pine south of the &lt;a title="Equator" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equator"&gt;Equator&lt;/a&gt;. It generally occurs at moderate altitudes, mostly from 400-1500 m, but occasionally as low as 90 m and up to 2000 m.
It is a medium-sized to large &lt;a title="Tree" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree"&gt;tree&lt;/a&gt;, reaching 25-45 m tall and with a trunk diameter of up to 1 m. The bark is orange-red, thick and deeply fissured at the base of the trunk, and thin and flaky in the upper crown. The &lt;a title="Leaf" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf"&gt;leaves&lt;/a&gt; ('needles') are in pairs, very slender, 15-20 cm long and less than 1 mm thick, green to yellowish green. The &lt;a title="Conifer cone" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conifer_cone"&gt;cones&lt;/a&gt; are narrow conic, 5-8 cm long and 2 cm broad at the base when closed, green at first, ripening glossy red-brown. They open to 4-5 cm broad at maturity to release the seeds. The seeds are 5-6 mm long, with a 15-20 mm wing, and are wind-dispersed.
Sumatran Pine is closely related to &lt;a title="Tenasserim Pine" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenasserim_Pine"&gt;Tenasserim Pine&lt;/a&gt; Pinus latteri, which occurs further north in southeast Asia from &lt;a title="Myanmar" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar"&gt;Myanmar&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a title="Vietnam" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnam"&gt;Vietnam&lt;/a&gt;; some botanists treat the two as conspecific (under the name P. merkusii, which was described first), but the Tenasserim Pine differs in longer (18-27 cm) and stouter (over 1 mm thick) leaves and larger cones with thicker scales, the cones often remaining closed for some time after maturity. It is also related to the group of &lt;a title="Mediterranean" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean"&gt;Mediterranean&lt;/a&gt; pines including &lt;a title="Aleppo Pine" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleppo_Pine"&gt;Aleppo Pine&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Turkish Pine" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_Pine"&gt;Turkish Pine&lt;/a&gt;, which share many features with it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7575729909175640445-6375436314256720013?l=vilabotani.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/6375436314256720013'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/6375436314256720013'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vilabotani.blogspot.com/2008/01/sumatran-pine.html' title='Sumatran Pine'/><author><name>OB &amp;amp; JS</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jSTmJuCtYyA/TZKUFnYcskI/AAAAAAAABWg/cTMh32SaC90/s220/jackiekorns_2.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575729909175640445.post-2848362301944146144</id><published>2008-01-01T12:28:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T16:33:01.001+07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tropical Plants'/><title type='text'>Brugmansia x candida</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iA421PPOI/AAAAAAAAAUU/Yx1u0eAjwmA/s1600-h/brugmansia-x-candida.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163518687060114658" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iA421PPOI/AAAAAAAAAUU/Yx1u0eAjwmA/s400/brugmansia-x-candida.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Brugmansia x candida&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; makes a striking garden ornamental with its large white trumpet shaped flowers that appear in great quantities hanging like bells. The velvety grayish green leaves are spear shaped and the wood is quite brittle. There are a number of cultivars some with pink or purple flowers.

It grow better at higher elevation than in lowland gardens as it believe to be native to the mountains of Chile or Peru.

&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Clerodendrum paniculatum&lt;/span&gt;, native to Southeast Asia, is popularly known as the &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Pagoda Flower&lt;/span&gt; because its red-orange flowers appear in a conical from around a spike that rises high above the glossy five lobed leaves. It may grow to 3 meters but is usually kept pruned to a lower height.

Propagation is by air layering or from woody cuttings. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Source:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Tropical Garden Plants&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7575729909175640445-7673433670593660283?l=vilabotani.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/7673433670593660283'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/7673433670593660283'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vilabotani.blogspot.com/2008/01/clerodendrum-paniculatum.html' title='Clerodendrum paniculatum'/><author><name>OB &amp;amp; JS</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jSTmJuCtYyA/TZKUFnYcskI/AAAAAAAABWg/cTMh32SaC90/s220/jackiekorns_2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iAUG1PPNI/AAAAAAAAAUM/vz_OPugo5L4/s72-c/cleodendrum-paniculatum_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575729909175640445.post-7772164127751545550</id><published>2008-01-01T12:24:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T16:33:01.437+07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tropical Plants'/><title type='text'>Duranta repens</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6h-Um1PPMI/AAAAAAAAAUE/JxumkIsdwhc/s1600-h/duranta-repens_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163515865266601154" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6h-Um1PPMI/AAAAAAAAAUE/JxumkIsdwhc/s400/duranta-repens_1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Heliconia
Botanical Family: Heliconiaceae

&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Holicania&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, the only genus in the family &lt;em&gt;Heliconiacea&lt;/em&gt;, is among the fastest-expanding groups of ornamental plants. Growing from underground rhizomes, all have erect shoot and leaves that maybe vertically arranged like those of a banana, horizontally like those of a ginger. &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iB021PPQI/AAAAAAAAAUk/X1ngXikabKs/s1600-h/heliconia-golden-torch_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163519717852265730" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iB021PPQI/AAAAAAAAAUk/X1ngXikabKs/s400/heliconia-golden-torch_2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Heliconia&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is mostly native to the American tropics and the &lt;a title="Pacific Ocean" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean"&gt;Pacific Ocean&lt;/a&gt; islands west to &lt;a title="Indonesia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indonesia"&gt;Indonesia&lt;/a&gt;. Many of the most beautiful specimens growing below 1,200 feet but other found at higher altitudes up to 6,000 feet. The &lt;a title="Leaf" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf"&gt;leaves&lt;/a&gt; are 15-300 cm long , oblong, growing opposite one another on non-woody petioles often longer than the leaf, often forming large clumps with age. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iCKW1PPRI/AAAAAAAAAUs/JKr5F5w7mhA/s1600-h/heliconia-collinsiana_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163520087219453202" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iCKW1PPRI/AAAAAAAAAUs/JKr5F5w7mhA/s400/heliconia-collinsiana_1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Their &lt;a title="Flower" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower"&gt;flowers&lt;/a&gt; are produced on long, erect or drooping &lt;a title="Panicle" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panicle"&gt;panicles&lt;/a&gt;, and consist of brightly colored waxy bracts, with small true flowers peeping out from the bracts. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Heliconia&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; needs rich soil, plenty of water (but good drainage), and sunlight. Each plant stalk blooms but once and should be cut back to the ground afterwards. &lt;/div&gt;

Hibiscus
Botanical Family: Malvacaea &lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hibiscus mutabilis&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iDq21PPUI/AAAAAAAAAVE/6yQV79pjK3k/s1600-h/hibiscus-mutabilis_2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163521745076829506" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iDq21PPUI/AAAAAAAAAVE/6yQV79pjK3k/s400/hibiscus-mutabilis_2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hibiscus mutabilis&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is quite different with other hibiscus. This &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus&lt;/em&gt; popularly known as the &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Changeable Rose, the Rose of Sharon &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;or&lt;/span&gt; the Cotton Rose&lt;/span&gt;. This is a vigorous, bushy shrub growing to 2 meters or more with grayish-green leaves and large flowers, either single or double. This is quit interesting, in the morning when flowers open the color are pure white and change during the course of the day to deep pink. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Hibiscus rosa-sinensis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iEGm1PPVI/AAAAAAAAAVM/a63G8abGPgA/s1600-h/hibiscus-rosa-sinensis_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163522221818199378" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iEGm1PPVI/AAAAAAAAAVM/a63G8abGPgA/s400/hibiscus-rosa-sinensis_1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;
The most commonly grown is &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus rosa-sinensis&lt;/em&gt;. In Indonesia we call this flowers as the &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;shoe flower&lt;/span&gt; or &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;kembang sepatu&lt;/span&gt;. A reference to the fact that a juice extracted from the petals was supposedly used by the Dutch colonials to darken their shoes.

Generally &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus rosa-sinensis&lt;/em&gt; is a medium sized shrub, but some varieties can grow as tall as 5 meters. The leaves maybe ovate or lobed, smooth or hairy, green or variegated. Flower colors range from pure white through yellow and pink to scarlet. Though the flowers last only one day, many varieties bloom profusely so that there are nearly always several open at any time. Leaves and flowers are both edible and are sometimes used in traditional medicine.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Hibiscus schizopetalus
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iEvW1PPWI/AAAAAAAAAVU/y0XwjCAxky4/s1600-h/hibiscus-schzipetalus_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163522921897868642" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iEvW1PPWI/AAAAAAAAAVU/y0XwjCAxky4/s400/hibiscus-schzipetalus_1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This is another popular species, &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus schizopetalus&lt;/em&gt; a native of East Africa which has less dense foliage arching branches, pendulous flowers with fringed petals that curl back against the stem and an exceptional long staminal column. This is known in some places as the &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Coral Hibiscus&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. Like &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus rosa-sinensis&lt;/em&gt;, it has been used as the parent plant for numerous hybrids.

Most &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus&lt;/em&gt; require full sun to flower well and benefit from occasional pruning, especially when used as a hedge. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Source:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Tropical Garden Plants&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7575729909175640445-3380471231317747115?l=vilabotani.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/3380471231317747115'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/3380471231317747115'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vilabotani.blogspot.com/2008/01/hibiscus.html' title='Hibiscus'/><author><name>OB &amp;amp; JS</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jSTmJuCtYyA/TZKUFnYcskI/AAAAAAAABWg/cTMh32SaC90/s220/jackiekorns_2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iDdW1PPTI/AAAAAAAAAU8/t1hZEtP1Sfw/s72-c/hibiscus-mutabilis_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575729909175640445.post-9124881486058992342</id><published>2008-01-01T12:12:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T16:33:04.289+07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tropical Plants'/><title type='text'>Malvaviscus arboreus</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iGIm1PPXI/AAAAAAAAAVc/Uo6O6hiZRZU/s1600-h/malvaviscus-arboreus_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163524455201193330" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iGIm1PPXI/AAAAAAAAAVc/Uo6O6hiZRZU/s400/malvaviscus-arboreus_1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Malvaviscus arboreus
&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Wax Mallow, Firecracker, Hibiscus, Turk’s Cap&lt;/span&gt;
Botanical Family: Malvaceae

Very similar in appearance to &lt;em&gt;Hibiscus&lt;/em&gt;, this bushy shrub from tropical America has hairy toothed leaves and large flowers that are rolled as if about to open. The usual color is bright red but there is a pink flowering cultivar. The shrub can grow up to 4 meters in height and can become invasive in a small garden unless regularly pruned back. This flower is attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds, it is also often attacked in some areas by leaf eating insect pets and many need regular sprying.

This flower needs full sun and a well drained but moist soil. Propagation is by means of cutting which root easily.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Source:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Tropical Garden Plants&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7575729909175640445-9124881486058992342?l=vilabotani.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/9124881486058992342'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7575729909175640445/posts/default/9124881486058992342'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vilabotani.blogspot.com/2008/01/malvaviscus-arboreus.html' title='Malvaviscus arboreus'/><author><name>OB &amp;amp; JS</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-jSTmJuCtYyA/TZKUFnYcskI/AAAAAAAABWg/cTMh32SaC90/s220/jackiekorns_2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iGIm1PPXI/AAAAAAAAAVc/Uo6O6hiZRZU/s72-c/malvaviscus-arboreus_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575729909175640445.post-9018029487922165178</id><published>2008-01-01T12:10:00.000+07:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T16:33:04.603+07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tropical Plants'/><title type='text'>Mansoa alliacea</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iGom1PPYI/AAAAAAAAAVk/mT2f-8-NHWk/s1600-h/mansoa-alliacea_1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163525004957007234" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AnqVsh2-Lxw/R6iGom1PPYI/AAAAAAAAAVk/mT2f-8-NHWk/s400/mansoa-alliacea_1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Botanical Family: &lt;em&gt;Accanthaceae
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
The genus &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Thumbergia&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt; contains around 100 species, from shrubs to extremely ornamental vines. &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;T. grandiflora&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is perhaps the best known of the latter, a very fast growing climber with large, slightly rough heart shaped leaves and long, hanging clusters of either mauve-blue or white trumpet-shaped flowers. We only have blue trumpet vine that cover the roof of the Aula.

&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Thumbergia&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; likes full sun or light shade and moist, well-drained soil. Propagation is by cutting or air-layering. &lt;/div&gt;

Is anyone knows what the name of this&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt; flowers&lt;/span&gt;?

Maybe it is not a kind of tropical flowers because I couldn't find the name of flowers in my book - Tropical Garden Plants.
