They seem more vivid this time for some reason. I say load up on Amaryllis and other bulbs that you can grow inside. :0) I once suffered from SAD for several years.

But, with a wabi-sabi viewpoint, I'm drinking my morning tea, watching my ornamental grasses sway (okay, not sway, downright swirl), the continued browning of the plant material, and I'm enjoying the view enormously. Have a happy wabi-sabi day everyone.

All the while I was writing, I kept thinking about that Wabi Sabi meme that went around a few years back. Like minds.

(wbi-sbi the best I could do within the law) I loved your pictures. Is Northern Sea Oats uh, gently invasive? I have a year old plant, that I love, but there seems to be lots of small grasslings that look like the Sea Oat. They weed out easily, but still. The prolific number of them stopped me from transplanting any to see what they grew into. foffmomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20831949.post-28427013511044218352012-11-23T12:28:48.427-04:002012-11-23T12:28:48.427-04:00I appreciate the concept of wabi-sabi.
