- About
The texture’s as appealing as the color. I’m intrigued by the white fuzziness at the center of the leaves; is that left over from the buds?
Yes! The texture..the deep veining…the fuzziness is from the centre of the bud, which over winter is a dark but shiney red, large and very sticky.
They are so beautiful… all that beauty from a tiny bud, miraculous!
It is definitely miraculous!
Beautiful, and fascinating too!
Yes, it’s very easy to stand for many minutes examining (?) the emerging leaves!
