POTD: Cypress

Posted on December 15, 2022 Updated on December 15, 2022

This is a Cypress of some sort but, it is definitely a Chamaecyparis. Pl@ntNet can’t really pinpoint the exact species. It seems to think it is a Lawsoniana. The picture on Wikipedia isn’t helpful, either. ~Vic

POTD: Cute Church

Posted on March 27, 2020 Updated on July 31, 2020

I’m not sure if this is a bird house that someone put on the ground, temporarily or if it is just a piece of yard art. It’s lovely either way. ~Vic
