Up the Tree
This was today's debate: a Natchez Crepe Myrtle or a Jacaranda?
The Natchez Crepe (or Crape) Myrtle (white flower version) won for now but there's another spot that cries out for a Jacaranda.
The entire process made me envious of botanists and gardeners. I asked the young woman who was showing us around the nursery if she knew every type of tree there. She did and she noted that when she drives down a street with her friends they simply see trees but she sees something very different.
The price of knowledge.
