Symphony of Yellow, Green, and a Hint of Purple. Verbascum thapsus (Great Mullein / Common Mullein), Royal Botanic Garden Sydney / SML.20140314.6D.30880
Symphony of Yellow, Green, and a Hint of Purple.
Great mullein, scientifically known as Verbascum thapsus, is a biennial plant native to Europe, northern Africa, and Asia, and has been introduced to the Americas and Australia. It is known for its tall, woolly appearance and its medicinal properties.
I saw these at the Royal Botanic Garden in Sydney in 2014. I came here for a wedding, but ended up finding unexpected treasures through the lens.
I also met up with some friends I haven’t seen forever — a couple who both worked in interactive and arguably one of the most brilliant people I know in the world.
The husband is someone who is a synergist — he who wields design and technology professionally — They’re very rare. I know maybe less than five people like that. His only regret is that I write Python. My only regret is that he writes Ruby (LOL).
Brilliant parents have brilliant kids. Such exceptional kids. Some people energize me without having to say a word. I could feel it from the kids.
As with most of my best trips, I had no expectations, but I ended up having some of the best times in my life. It reminds me that I need to allow myself to explore more often — sometimes life is most beautiful when you don’t plan anything and just allow things to happen randomly.
