Rose on Flora and Fauna Festival Jakarta 2014
My family has a hobby of gardening. We really enjoy to garden together on weekend. The plants not only beautify the front part of my home, but also give fresher air. However, since I live in Jakarta, I do not have much time to do this hobby. I only keep 2 small cactus in small flower pots in front of my room.
The Gate of Flora and Fauna Festival 2014. It is abbreviated as Flona
Furthermore, when I get the information that there is FLONA FESTIVAL which shows and sells various flora and fauna in Jakarta, I am so excited to come. My eyes are refreshed by the super green view from the display of trees. The air is also very fresh, surely it is nice since people rarely enjoy fresh air in afternoon during the hectic day in the center of Jakarta. I spend more times in flora zone than in fauna zone because I am not that keen on having pets on my home. However, I still get excited to explore and pay attention the detail of all zones.

The festival itself is done from May 23 to June 22, 2014 in Banteng Field, Central Jakarta, open from 8 am to 6 pm. This annual events offers 286 booths for people to explore or even to shop. Ornamental plants dominate the festival by occupying 80% of display. The pet zone is around 15%. Meanwhile, 3% are for rare plants and 2 % are for herbal plants.

In fact, I do not buy anything in festival :). I only take some photos and enjoy the view. Those are several photos I take, may you enjoy them.
