Somewhere in SF.

Holly (Ilex) grows quite readily in Victoria. The hedge around the perimeter of the Albian Manor where we stayed was holly and 7 feet tall.

Bamboo plant

The edge of the leaf blade is called the leaf margin. Intramarginal veins occur just inside the leaf margin and run parallel to the margin. They can sometimes be very obvious but you usually have to look quite closely to see them.

With some leaves, it’s the fine structure I like. With this one however, the subtle colour gradient is just as nice.

Also have a look at my website at www.focx.de :)

I am a photographic trailblazer - no one has ever taken a photo like this before, ever. ;D

The baby leaf is still curling.

I was walking a trail I had never used in the Monmouth County Park System when I stopped to look around. I happened to watch as the white undersided leaf fell and came to rest on the broad green leaf. How quickly time moves on.
