This year's International Blooms honored country is the Philippines and we are super excited to learn more about their culture. Here is some information regarding their form of currency and how it differs from the American dollar.
The Filipino peso, also referred to by its Filipino name piso, is the official currency of the Philippines. It is subdivided into 100 sentimo, also called centavos. Above is a 20 peso banknote which features Manual Quezon, their 2nd President and reformer along with the palace (similar to our White House) in Manila. The reverse of the banknote features the sun (same as their flag), the island layout, an Asian Palm Civet, and the famous Banaue Rice Terraces a UNESCO World Heritage site.
There are so many interesting things to learn about the Philippines and we can't wait to celebrate their culture this year!

The Azalea Festival Youth Committee (AFYC) supports the North Carolina Azalea Festival year-round by volunteering and fundraising. While AFYC members are busy volunteering during Festival week in April, they also get to take time to attend the Queen’s Coronation as special guests, hangout at the Concerts, and have way more behind-the-scenes fun than anyone else!
All of the fun that we have wouldn’t be possible without the help from @libertyhealth_
