Flowers: color of patriotism

Suitable arrangement for patriotism!!.... We were at the front balcony one day. The flag hoisted for 31 August 2008 independence day of Malaysia still there, but the color remains as bright .... Blue, red, yellow and white.... we were discussing about a suitable flower arrangement to signify the next independence day which is five months away .......


Malaysian Flag
on the front balcony leaning against the railings

red,
(bitter gourd seeds coating)
red
(ixora)


yellow
(the flower of bitter gourd, i love the wavy look
and it is almost floating in the air)

white
I wish I knew the name of the plant. They were
growing at 7 different location in our plot....
This one is at the base of bitter gourd.
update: Julian says Zephyr lily


blue
Hmm... that's the nearest to blue in our plot,
Kakdah has signalled to add more flowers other than veggies...
Now she is busy looking for plants with blue flowers.
I think that calls for another trip to Sungai Buloh!...
or Lili of Blossom Blooms
may shoot some idea....
and I saw blue flowers in several blogs by; gittan, Kim and victoria, and kewee... and many many others..

The arrangement for 2009
