Plants & Rags
"She wanted to exist only as a conscious flower, prolonging and preserving herself"-F.Scott Fitzgerald
I've been spending a lot of time at the greenhouses and gardens at the Arboretum. I've been obsessed with greenhouses since a child. We would go visit relatives that owned greenhouses near my grand-parents house and I was instantly in a trance when i stood in front of the closed doors. The moment I opened the doors I would look around nervously to make sure I was in their alone because I would be embarrassed by my own wild behavior once I was inside! A fun escape for a child that has certainly continued into adulthood. In the very near future my office will be a greenhouse...
On my lunch breaks I spend it under this tree...Chinese fringe tree from Taiwan. The fragrance is intoxicating.
