buds...

yesterday was all about buds - the kind that go in your ears (or on the floor):



and the more beautiful kind:



this tree (be it nectarine or peach, we're not quite sure) sprang up from a seed within pile of fruit and vegie scraps we'd dumped in a pile in the back corner of our garden two years ago. according to my botany-trained friend, it has good branch formation and has sprung up in a surprising way.

take care,
