Fall Bonsai
Did you know bonsai trees change color in fall? I didnt, but its true. I guess we shouldnt be surprised by the transformation. Just like other trees, once the days become shorter and they receive less light, the chlorophyll begins to diminish and the classic autumn colors start taking over the leaves.
Thankfully the kids in DC had things sorted out just in time for the annual fall exhibition at the National Arboretum. Some say bonsai trees are bad fengshui. The interpretation is fascinating. I can admire the beauty of a really healthy bonsai, but my heart is into freedom and the wilderness of untouched nature. Bonsai trees to me are just another reminder of humans interference and control of the natural world.
