This last posting, looks at THE TREE with a focus on early Winter as it begins here is the Gardens at Waters East.  THE TREE, and all of us, are now moving into the final months of the year.  Gone are all the lush greens, the vibrant colors, even most of the birds have headed South for now and hopefully will return again next Spring.

As you can see, now the stillness and quiet of this cold season has taken hold.  THE TREE will remain much as you see it for the next few months waiting for the sun’s warmth to return.
