What’s Beautiful Now: First Snow

Posted in Around the Garden on November 8 2012, by Ann Rafalko

It snowed last night. It was very quiet and very beautiful, and it hung around until this morning when we were able to document it for posterity. Which is good because by this weekend when it’s 60 degrees again and we’re celebrating Fall Forest Weekend, we’ll all be asking each other “What snow?”

When we were last at the Garden, we saw a ‘LACE BARK PINE TREE’ that was amazing. The bark had us chattering about it for almost an hour. Interestingly, as we discussed the colors, design, layers, etc… a crowd of other Garden visitors joined us in admiring the special beauty of the tree. The tree developed a ‘Mini-Fan Club’ right there ‘n then!

Please consider adding it to your photographs — with or without snow as a backdrop — bring on the ‘LACE BARK PINE TREES!’
