Joshua Tree Photos and Art

It is Saturday, and time for another botanical art appreciation post. In the spotlight is the ever intriguing Joshua tree. It is hard to say what is more captivating; the quirky 'outstretched arms' of the Joshua tree, or the severe yet beautiful Mohave desert surroundings. You be the judge.

Just For Fun

As a plant enthusiast I always enjoy a great botanical reproduction in just about any form. There are a number of independent artists out there that seem to share the same sentiment. As a follow up to yesterday's post, I have selected a few Etsy items that showcase the beautiful white flower of the Southern magnolia. Enjoy!
