    Beautiful flowers. I only find it a little pity that I don’t see that it is in a desert.

      If you click on the link under the photo, and go to the Web page where the brittlebush is pictured without blossoms, you’ll get an idea of how it got its name!

    I love taking pictures of little things, the tiny flowers no one sees, drops of water, etc. This picture brightened my gloomy Virginia day 🙂

    no, this is definitely not about green barley…it’s about not being green barley – cool…
