March. 2017.

Although there is still a lot of heat in our days and it still feels like summer, nature is preparing for winter.

For the last few weeks I’ve been watching these strange flowers growing on a tree in a garden near our house.  So pink. So plump and lumpy.    Today I notice they are shedding their seeds.  The orange – what a colour to pop out of the pink and purple.
