Valentine's Day Snow

We woke up to around 4 inches of snow today. We already had a dusting from yesterday. If I am not mistaken, we've had at least one big snowfall every winter since we've lived here. They usually occur in January or February but sometimes as late as April. Here are the obligatory photos. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

Desert Plants in the Kyoto Botanical Gardens Conservatory


By the time I made my way around to the Desert House, my battery was getting low and I didn't photograph many of the plant labels. I took mostly wide views of plant groupings anyway because I was attracted to the structures and combinations rather than individual plants. This was an amazing display.









Adonsonia digitata

Dasylirion wheeleri


Adenium obesum (Desert Rose)

Euphorbia geraldii
