Yeh! Yeh! The Corn plants in my garden are flowering. In Cantonese, the corn plant is referred to as Tit Shu.
Why am I so happy? This is because the Chinese have a saying 鐵樹. 鐵樹開花，富貴榮華 which translates to mean "when the corn plant begins to flower, it is a sign of wealth luck coming ones way". Therefore, the corn plant 鐵樹 or Dracaena Massangeana is considered an auspicious plant.
Now where it the guy who goes round selling lottery tickets? Heh! Heh!
