As you may know, I was lucky enough to travel through South Korea for a couple weeks in June. I took some lovely pictures that are either garden-related or livestock-related and I thought I would share. I am trying to keep the descriptions breif since there are lots of pictures! Click on the actual photo for a larger picture.
This is a lovely ceramics idea I want to steal. These were hanging outside a little flower shop, and this is a side view. The front is actually wider and has a small hole at the bottom for water drainage. It must sound lovely when the water splashes on the bell hanging from the bottom.
I was told this is a green plum and they were in season during our trip. They sold the fruit on street corners with other produce, made them into juice, smoothies, etc.

Hey Renee!
This is quite the sampling of photos. What an experience. I always take pictures of gardens on my trips too. Glad I know someone else like that. I enjoyed the Flickr page as well.

i’m wondering where that herb market was in seoul.
i’m in korea right now, and bushels of dried things to make tea out of sounds nice.
and what was that themepark called?
Renee says
Hi Justin-
I believe the market with the teas, spices and medicinals was Gyeong-dong. Hope memory is serving me right on that one… Have a great trip!
