examining tree branches


Not, however, our own tree branches.  Perhaps the only good thing to come out of the fires has been the number of neighbors who have undertaken major, major tree pruning, especially of those highly inflammable tiki torches known as palm trees.  However - this resulted in a deluge of foliage landing on our deck and in our plumbago, courtesy of a house above us further up the road (slightly embarrassingly, the guys who came to clear it up were gardeners who we'd let go a couple of years back, after the patriarch of the team sadly died, because the ones who took over his work were ... inefficient.  I guess they still are).  But this gives one more view of the blossom, before it gets beaten off by the next round of rains ...
