We are drought-stricken. There's no other way to put it, although we have some cautious hope now that our annual monsoon weather has begun. So you wouldn't think that we would be able to produce anything as lush as this beautiful mimosa tree in full bloom, which I spotted down the road during an early morning walk.
The tree is nestled at the edge of a pecan orchard, where it benefits from the bi-weekly flooding of the pecans.
Lovely, isn't it? So exotic for the desert.
