one of the positive things about having Mellie is that I have to go out 3 times a day and this little bugger loves to explore different areas.

Today we went to another little park next to our apartment that she was refusing to enter before.

This used to be our kids #playground, right next door with play areas for kids, grass for football and plenty of tiny gravel roads to bike or scooter around.

The park have changed a bit. There are much much more #trees, #plants, bushes and #flowers from all around the world here.

This one caught my eyes. We have plenty of orange/yellow ones of them in the #park but this one is white and the plant is much much bigger.

It's really gorgeous.

Today, visiting a Garden.. No, it was an Arboretum, that's so groovy.

#Trees

For the tree saint of Ozzmundia @clarice_overhere@diaspora.psyco.fr

Spruce in a pot. Pruned like a puddle so it looks more like a pine than a spruce. Pot bound 15 m (or so) up in the air. But 6-7 years and living a life of its own. It began as a small Christmas tree for fun, now we take it very seriously.

How do trees bring back rivers?

We all depend on clean water. But rivers worldwide are drying out. In Ghana, tree buffers are bringing back a once depleted river.

THE MAN AND A BEAUTIFUL APPLE TREE
- Once upon a time a man had a beautiful apple tree growing in his backyard.
He was very thrifty. He ate all the apples that had fallen to the ground before he would pick a fresh apple from the tree.
By the time he had gone all around the tree eating the apples from the ground, more apples had fallen from the tree.
Around and around the tree he went, year after year. Thus, the man with the beautiful apple tree, ate rotten apples all of his life.

Yew Tree

Here's one for @YA and anyone who loves yew trees. This is how my lovely yew tree looks today, covered with new growth shining bright green over the dark needles of previous years. I love this tree the most in my garden ... in my life. I grew it from a seed I collected and prepared, planted in its own little pot and nurtured. It's maybe thirteen years old now or even fourteen - I don't keep records, it's my legacy for all who enjoy looking at it.

I hope you like it too.

The Olive
In the Bible, the olive is a symbol of holiness, beauty, freshness, and even a symbol of peace. The olive is also one of the seven important species (trees, plants) of Israel. The olive tree’s branches are part of the Emblem of the State of Israel.

Cypress Tree Swamps - Pt.2 - Corkscrew Swamp

Part one was "trees with knees"
(Everglades, Below)

No knees here, a bit further north (near Naples) but I like the many forms and colors, and that clear blue blue water.

I think I'm enjoying "different" & "abstract." Realism is lovely in the streets and cities, but I'm a bit saturated with birds & gators. ;)

Beauty.vs. the Beast(s) - so much of the latter in courts and on screens everywhere. Except here, in the real swamp.
