Bright sunny blue sky, some high wispy white clouds, cool breezes
that have been perfumed by citrus trees, this morning is beautiful.
.
Sitting in my side yard for now is my newest addition.
A Pomegranate tree.
.
Trying to decide where to plant it or if I want it in a pot.
.
It will be several years before the fruit sets but I don't care because it is such a beautiful tree and the deep green leaves and bright red blossoms will be a welcome addition to my garden.
When I was a small child one year my Mum and Father asked what kind of tree I wanted
to plant in the yard. We had just moved again (we seemed to move a lot) and I said Pomegranate. Strange choice from a child, I am sure, looking back now, that they thought I would pick an Orange tree.
My Mum and I use to buy a pomegranate and share it when they appeared at the market.
They are very special to me, I always think of my Mum when I see one.
