A stunning tree. My favorite. Your pictures are great. You are right: the fragrance transports you to another realm. I clip them to bring inside and place in a bowl of water but they last only a day so better to enjoy the smell outside.
oh, yes! i used to cut them one at a time and take them to mother. she would float them in a bowl and they would scent her whole house. they are one of my favorites, too.
Those are awsome! I´m pretty sure I have never seen one in real life.
ReplyDeletethey are all over the place around here. we had a few in a yard where we lived once. they took up a lot of the yard!
