Finally some rain!! 🌧️

It has been a very dry start into the season, but the meadow has been holding up great and is looking beautiful. Did you know that letting your lawn grow taller and allowing "weeds" to grow makes it more drought-resistant? Just one of the many perks.

Nature's fireworks 🌸✨

Flat-crown Albizia (Albizia adianthifolia) a tree native to East and Central African forests. Each flower is a pure starburst of silk stamens: white at the base, deepening to rose-mauve at the tips. No petals. Just botanical drama in its purest form.

These trees are part of the legume family (Fabaceae), relatives of acacias and mimosas. Their fern-like leaves fold closed at night, a process called nyctinasty.
