...The Flower-Fed Buffaloes Explore how either The Flower-Fed Buffaloes (by Vachel Lindsay) or Report to Wordsworth (by Boey Kim Cheng) powerfully conveys feelings about human destruction ? Uses: - Symbols - contrasting visual imagery. - tone In the poem called “The Flower – Fed Buffaloes” written by Vachel Lindsay. The poet uses literally techniques such as visual images, tone and symbols, in order for her to convey a strong image about the human destruction of the natural world. The poet uses visual imagery that opposes one and another, in order for her to create this image of destruction of nature by mankind. At the beginning of the poem, before humans intervened, the countryside was “blooming, tossing” and the “flowers lie low’. These words make nature have an ambiance of calmness, zen, peacefulness and harmony as nature is not disturbed by anything. But this visual image will soon change, as suddenly everything is “swept away by wheat’, meaning that this peacefully countryside is intervened by human activity. This creates an image of nature suddenly being attacked and confronted with mankind and its intentions. The changing of fields into wheat plantation is an example of one of many mankind’s’ intention (this being colonization and industry). The author also uses contracting tone in order for her to convey feelings about human destruction. Like with the visual imagery, the tone of poem is very happy and serene, as nature is free to do whatever it...

...“Consciously at times, unconsciously at others, we search for ways to reclaim our loss (of Eden)” (3). Central Park, palm trees planted along the side of the road in Miami, and the garden behind your house all have one thing in common: they were made for the same purpose, to reinvent Eden. You may not realize as you are weeding your garden or strolling through Central Park that you are subconsciously part of a movement to bring back the world to an ideal Eden like state. You can see examples of it anywhere you turn, man using technology to turn ‘wilderness’ into a structured haven in which society can live happily. When Eve ate the apple and she and Adam were forced to live in the untamed world we call home today God told man to dominate over nature. Some people have taken this literally, but some have derived a different meaning from the statement. Many people think that we must firmly control all aspects of nature, plants and animals alike. They believe that all ‘wilderness’ must be stripped away and order must be restored to the land. Others feel that we need an almost sheppard-like approach to nature. As a sheppard watches over, guides, and protects his sheep we must preserve nature and its natural beauty. They believe that nature itself is Eden and we must make ourselves one with nature in order to return to Eden. No matter what the individual believes the end goal is the same, the reinvention of Eden. A specific example of this would be to look at the Bryant University...

...garden represents devotion and leisure. It takes patience to grow a garden, frustrations and hardships are also involved in the process. Firstly the seed is planted. The seed builds the foundation of a strong and stable plant. It has to be taken care of and watered daily. Then the shoots start sprouting, the plant is finally flourishing. One can see day by day the garden maturing. Then one day the garden starts to wilt, its dying. One has to tend to it and have the patience and determination to bring it back to life. It frustrates one to see the insects and predators preying on the beautiful garden that once existed. But hard work and devotion regains the gardens beauty and gives it life again. Soon a shoots blossom and bloom into beautiful flowers. The charm and divine beauty of the garden is a wonderful enlightening sight. Building a friendship has similar characteristics. One meets a person and plants the seed of friendship. The friendship builds and continues to grow stronger. It requires devotion of time and patience to achieve peak communication between the two companions. The struggle to keep a solid friendship includes many obstacles and hardships. But compromising, devotion and the willingness to endure are bound to payoff in the end. As Bernard Wolf quotes ^It takes a long time to grow an old friendship^. Friendship has its good and bad times. There comes a time when the relationship is just...

...The butterfly site, basically a prairie meadow, should be in an open area with good circulation and receiving more than six hours of sun each day, so probably on the south and east side of the buildings. The plants can be planted spring or early fall. The “recipe” recommended by the NJ Native Plant Society is 1/3-1/2 grasses to ½-2/3 wildflowers. Native grasses are especially good later in the season after the flowers have bloomed. Minimal maintaince is key, since NJIT doesn’t have many resources for this and mowing once a year in the early spring before nesting season should be enough. Adult butterflies require nectar from flowers which are more decorative and can be grown in the front areas of the site. The other plants, including shrubs and small trees can be interspersed into the forested buffer. After initial dense planting of these areas, the intent is to let is grow wild with seed freely spreading. The flowers are: milkweed, asters, thistle, sunflower, goldenrod, mint, buttonbush, cardinal flower, and coneflowers. The shrubs and...

I had the swirl and ache From sprays of honeysuckle That when they're gathered shake Dew on the knuckle. I craved strong sweets, but those Seemed strong when I was young; The petal of the rose It was that stung. Now no joy but lacks salt That is not dashed with pain And weariness and fault; I crave the stain Of tears, the after mark Of almost too much love, The sweet of bitter bark And burning clove. When stiff and sore and scarred I take away my hand From leaning on it hard In grass and sand, The hurt is not enough: I long for weight and strength To feel the earth as rough To all my length. “To Earthward” by Robert Frost exemplifies the concept of how attraction and love change over the years from youth to bitter love to a love that craves relief from...

...discounter or in a flower shop is very hard and long. In the last few years, the flower industry has extremely increased and it actually got bigger than the music industry. The world’s largest exporter of roses is called Sai Ramakrishna Karuturi and is from India. He owns land eight times the size of Mumbai. Four years ago he additionally bought the biggest rose farm of the world with 4500 workers, 160 ha land and 650 million roses, that leave the farm every year. He has a huge power in the flower trade and plays actually a big role in it. He makes a turnover of 25 Million euros every year and he managed to get a 9 percent market share in Europe in the last few years. Customers that are very important for him are Edeka and Aldi. Discounters want goods that are cheap, fast and durable at once. To fulfill the discounter’s requirements, the African workers ship only the rose buds and not the blooming flower abroad. That makes sure that the roses are durable for a longer time. Mr. Karuturi sells 55 % of the output through the auction in the Netherlands and the rest through wholesalers and retailers. Also 100 % of the African rose production is exported to Europe. Even though Africa and Latin America export huge amounts of cut flowers, the Netherlands is the biggest export country. Exports from the Netherlands to Germany make a significant part of the world cut flower trade respectively of the whole world trade. FloraHolland, the most known flower auction, is located...

...the country in an old region named Appalachia, a small piece of the Appalachian Mountains, in a town named Pikeville. Pikeville is a polluted town because of the coal industry. People live in apartment or condominium buildings because of its little space available. I grew up in one of the many buildings in Pikeville admiring from my bedroom window the beauty of the mountains, always exploring with my eyes the forest or the meadows, looking for a clean and quiet place. And, I found one on a hill in the back of the town. It is about 100 feet square, it has seven old trees, wild flowers and a lot of bugs and ants during summer time. I used to go there to sit down on a rock and watch the town and my trees. There was a very old tree, a maple tree, with a huge trunk. The others were smaller, three in the back, three on my left side and the old maple tree on my right. There were flowers, many kinds, white, yellow, purple and blue. It was nobody's place. Nobody owned that hill, but it was beautiful and peaceful and I dreamed many times about a white house over there. I think that, these kinds of places are meaningful to people because they are natural and people can be there alone, away from their everyday life. I used to go there to be alone or to dream with my eyes open admiring the blue sky or the...

...Inquiry Research Paper Every plant is different. There are no two plants that are the same, nor are there two that grow the same way. Some plants grow in hot, dry environments while others grow in cold, damp environments. Some plants grow in the tropical rain forests while others grow in prairies. Even plants that are in the same family can grow in different climates and environments. Plants can be as similar as they are different. Plants need certain factors to be able to thrive in an environment. They need certain levels of water and sunlight. They need a certain type of soil and certain amount of shade. Plants are very picky on how, when and where they grow. The Beavertail Cactus, African Lilly, and Boston fern are three plants that are very different in many ways. They all grow in different regions and require different levels of abiotic factors. They are each unique in their own way and are ever different then the species in their families. The Beavertail Cactus is a part of the cactaceae, cactus family. It has a scientific name of Opuntia basilaris. The cactus is the state cactus of Texas. The lifespan of it is over twenty years. Another name that the Beavertail Cactus is referred to is “Prickly Pear.” It is referred by that name because of the fruit that grows on it. Spanish-American culture influenced a nickname for the fruit, “tuna.” The Beavertail Cactus is flat and pancake like with no leafs. It is a dull green color. The cactus can reach up to seven feet...

...the shorts story, is little Lucy from Africa who sees that her mother and father are having problems, then Lucy try to solve the problems on her own way. Lucy is 10 years old and she has a childlike ability to admire the nature around her when she is out to find flowers to his mother. She describes in detail how each flower and plant looks like. Her fascination with nature is pure and unspoiled. ”The leaves of the Msasa trees were shiny, and the sun made it look as if there were diamonds on the big granite boulders.” (ll. 46-47) She also uses the shadows from the trees to measure how late it is. It shows us that she is a young girl who has a different view of the world. ”By the time I got home the long grass was making shadows across the path...” (l. 62). Lucy is a little girl who wants to make everyone happy. She thinks that if she picking flowers for her mother, will she be in a better mood. Since it only works temporarily, Lucy tries to make her mother happy to get some money by selling flowers. ”I longed to give my mother something so beautiful and precious...” (ll. 58-59). Without understanding why she should give the money back, then senses Lucy anyway, it might be about something else than just flowers. But she does not understand that it would be embarrassing to take the money from others. ”I walked home thinking about how everyone else had taken back their money as though it had nothing to do with the flow- ers.” (ll. 167-168) The story takes place in South...

...Growing Your Own Herb Garden Herbs have been used for thousands of years for their medicinal, cosmetic and nutritional benefits. Growing your own is not only easy, but immensely satisfying – whether you have an entire area of ground to develop a formal herb garden, or simply wish to grow a few of your favourites in pots. Planning your herb garden Before you plant anything, consider whether you want to grow herbs for ornamental purposes, for cooking, for their natural health and beauty benefits, or simply to liven up your garden. Compile a list of specific herbs that you would like to grow – if you're unsure, there are many websites with plant indexes that can assist you in choosing the right herbs based on your preferences and the amount of space that you have available. Typically, annuals that grow well in South Africa include Basil, Coriander and Parsley (technically biennial, but usually grown as an annual), and perennials that fair well here include Lavender, Oregano, Rosemary, Sage and Thyme. When picking the location for your herbs, keep in mind that most of the herbs that we can successfully grow in South Africa need four to seven hours of direct sun a day, so pick a sunny spot that is sheltered from wind, but is not shaded. If you're planting your herbs directly in the ground, choose an area with well-drained, fertile soil. If this is not possible, most herbs will survive in poor sandy soil, but avoid planting anything in wet clay soil. Design ideas Traditionally...

...and beyond, taking their ideas to a whole different level. They envision something, and act upon it, creating something that not everyone could successfully pull off. Every single work of art was unique in it’s own way, but one of the piece managed to truly catch my eye. The title of the work was inflorescence by Bhakti Baxter, which was created back in 2006. The name actually fits this work of art very well, which I found to be rather humorous. Sometimes a name of an art piece can have no relation to what it actually displays, as opposed to those which just state what they want you to see. Inflorescence, by definition, means the complete flower head of a plant, or the arrangement of the flowers on a plant. That is exactly what this looked like, just the top and main part of the flower. Start by picturing this beautiful pink lotus flower, but then start to picture it has a hard and solid object, each petal having it’s own defining shape, and having every line lead back towards the center. Then imagine it being the purest of them all and literally...

...are borne alternately on the stem. In most species they are 5 to 15 centimetres (2.0 to 5.9 in) long, pinnate, with (3–) 5–9 (–13) leaflets and basal stipules; the leaflets usually have a serrated margin, and often a few small prickles on the underside of the stem. Most roses are deciduous but a few (particularly from South east Asia) are evergreen or nearly so. The hybrid garden rose "Amber Flush" The flowers of most species have five petals, with the exception of Rosa sericea, which usually has only four. Each petal is divided into two distinct lobes and is usually white or pink, though in a few species yellow or red. Beneath the petals are five sepals (or in the case of some Rosa sericea, four). These may be long enough to be visible when viewed from above and appear as green points alternating with the rounded petals. There are multiple superior ovaries that develop into achenes.[4] Roses are insect-pollinated in nature. The aggregate fruit of the rose is a berry-like structure called a rose hip. Many of the domestic cultivars do not produce hips, as the flowers are so tightly petalled that they do not provide access for pollination. The hips of most species are red, but a few (e.g. Rosa pimpinellifolia) have dark purple to black hips. Each hip comprises an outer fleshy layer, the hypanthium, which contains 5–160 "seeds" (technically dry single-seeded fruits called achenes) embedded in a matrix of fine, but stiff, hairs. Rose hips of some species, especially the dog...
