Locarno, the lady of the camellias: the camellia: sensuously shaped, richly hued, synonymous with chic (it was Coco Chanel's favourite), and it flowers in the greyest, coldest period of the year. If that weren't enough it's also evergreen and dead easy to grow. Little wonder that the camellia is one of the world's favourite blooms. Golini, Catherine 832
Mark Slouka: The Visible World. 54

Pen pushers and dealers: if you happen to see a guy walking down a street in Switzerland clutching a bunch of flowers, it's probably not that it's someone's birthday or he messed up with his significant other and is trying to make amends.

When the journey is the reward: the Engadin Ski Marathon, the single most popular winter sporting event in Switzerland and a beloved tradition, will celebrate its 40th anniversary this year. Only once, in the spring of 1991, did a spontaneous warm spell force its cancellation. For 2008, the race is very much on. Fritz Kohler, fast on the trail since year one, puts the race in perspective. Neururer, Dorothee 829
