Kultapyrst�lilja: Finnish Edition of "A Parrot Tail Lily"

by Tuula Pere, Catty Flores (Illustrator)

Overview

Kosmon puutarhaan ilmestyy jotain odottamatonta. Jopa harvinaisten kasvien keskellä se on ihme - aito kultapyrstölilja!

Kun Cosmo keskittyy hoivaamaan harvinaista kukkaa, hän unohtaa kaiken muun ympärillään. Pian koko puutarha kärsii, ja lopulta myös kultapyrstölilja kuolee. Tuliko siitä liian yksinäinen?

Avuksi tulee Nelli, joka muistuttaa surullista Kosmo-setää tärkeimmästä asiasta. Kasvit tarvitsevat toisiaan ja luontoa ympärillään - aivan kuten ihmisetkin.

---

Something unexpected pops up in Cosmo's garden. Even amid rare plants, it is miraculous: a parrot tail lily!

As Cosmo concentrates on taking care of the rare flower, he forgets everything else. His whole garden suffers, and eventually, the parrot tail lily dies, too. Was it too lonely to survive?

Cosmo's young niece Nelly reminds the sad gardener about something he has forgotten. The plants need each other and nature around them - just like humans.
