I went to look through my gallery for a meme and quote to post for today's Wednesday Wisdom post and saw a picture that I took yesterday. I thought I'd take a little of my own advice and appreciate beauty when I find it and capture the moments to preserve or share them.
The first summer we moved here I bought a hibiscus tree and planted it. I didn't read the part about them not surviving a cold winter, so it died last winter. This past year I replaced it with a potted tree and brought it into the unfinished basement for the winter. It sits next to a window and gets enough light and water to stay alive. Occasionally, it puts out a flower.
I found this yesterday when I went downstairs to water it. I took the pic so I could share it here.
It looks like it might have been a day old bloom, but it was nice to see and a reminder that spring is coming.
Find some beauty today, even if it's in an unfinished basement.
Happy Wednesday,
John

You can turn your basement into a greenhouse. Get some grow lights. I'm sure the police will understand.
Mike, I'll be starting some plants this spring that the police won't be interested in. I'll see how well the basement greenhouse works out. ;) ;)
