Just a fragment of the fascinating beauty of the Purple Muhly Grass - dancing so delicately in the sun, sending off sparkles of purplish pink inflorescence, and honoring the native genre of Florida plants. We just got a burst of unbelievably beautiful weekend weather with crisp mornings and warm afternoons - a glimpse of what will hopefully dominate our 'winter's' climate. These grasses offer little spectacle in their dormant stage, but what a delight to see in bloom.

So often, the dormancy is what we view...and it is difficult to imagine and anticipate the latent beauty - that goes for human nature, as well! Staying positive and hopeful is hard work - as only this economy of late can prove, but, if cyclic, the better and best is yet to come! Freedom Park, Naples, FL
