Another Look at a Favorite Spot

 

The last time I featured a photo from this favorite spot at the Desert Botanical Garden was back in 2022 when things were finally opening up again after the two years of pandemic shut downs. This is a little pocket spot at the garden and they had it closed off for two years.  When it was opened again it was looking a bit plain.  Back in January, I saw that someone had placed a dead palm frond in that big water pail.

When I was there a week ago, I saw that they had removed the palm frond and planted something in the white pot.  A little green is improving the look.

I decided to back up and get a broader view of this spot.  The ledge sits on the back of one of the garden's office buildings in a section of the garden that gets very light traffic.  It's always quiet and peaceful back there so it's a good place to sit for a while and listen to the birds.

Nice looking "vattenkannor", we had a few of those in our greenhouses many years ago.

That looks like a wonderful place to sit for a while, Sharon.

nice shadow work… sometimes they make sounds too - if they aren't drown out by the birds.
seems the palm is thriving.
