I'm a Ylang-ylang! Which one are you?

As we all blog we have seen some of the most unusual names of fruits, flowers and what not as well as the common ones we know for the graphic words. I have always wondered about some of them because they are unquie and so different from the everyday. So are Realtors and Agents! We are all different and have a unique niche about us and can provide a unique service to our clients.

So if you were a Active Rain graphic word- which one would you be? Tell us which one and why?

I'm a Ylang-ylang!

Ylang-ylang (IPA: /ˈiːlæŋˈʔiːlæŋ/^[1]) (ee-lang ee-lang) Cananga odorata, is a small flower of the cananga tree. It is a fast-growing tree that exceeds 5 meters per year and attains an average height of 12 meters.

I have been fast growing in my Real Estate career. I started out only a year ago and I have made a great proven track record and have continued to "blossom"

Well...I don't know. Some of them could be Chinese cuss words for all we know! I wrote a blog about this a while back, but I didn't get much response. Go PATS...Thank you SOX!

Glad to see that the Sox won!!! Woo- hoo!

I didn't realize someone had done a blog about this- guess it's true, great minds do think alike.

Sorry to say but I am a Green Bay fan LOL!

Today I am a juneberry:

Juneberry Branches and Berries

The red, unripe berries, as well as the blue, mature ones, are good to eat.

These diverse shrubs or small trees have smooth to slightly furrowed, ash-gray to blackish bark, often beautifully adorned by curving, vertical, dark gray stripes.

Picture of English ivy. I thought my real estate career would be like English Ivy:

1st year it sleeps, 2nd year it creeps, 3rd year it leaps

English ivy plants can act as groundcovers, spreading horizontally and reaching 8" in height. But they are also climbers, due to their aerial rootlets, which allow them to climb to heights of 50' or more. They will eventually bear insignificant greenish flowers but are grown primarily for their evergreen foliage.

That's what I thought would happen when I became a realtor. I almost burned out my first year and my second has been just as busy. Great post!

Thanks Debbie & Rosemary- seems like we are all unique!!
