The Blessings Flower
The Gift Shop is selling very special pieces of jewelry, which contain the blessing flower. These pendants have as part of it a graceful, rare, and resilient desert flower that amazingly continues to re-bloom for years. With just a few drops of water it will bloom, staying open for an hour each time, and then close, waiting to re-bloom again with another few drops of water. They last for 30 years. Come by and see a demo.
