Survivor

For the last couple summers everything has struggled for water and tried to live.  I didn't think there was much hope for this little apple tree in the vacant lot near our home.  My heart skipped a beat when I saw it though, it's just bursting with blooms.  How sweet is that?            Diane

Still trying to figure out why I have the black on my pictures.

Such a beautiful hopeful thing and I LOVE the long green green grass, I hope no one cuts it. I don't know why we must tame it. It is so beautiful blowing in the wind and being free :)

That little tree is precious. I am sure its roots go down deep.

I wonder if your picture didn't load all the way and that's why there is a black part. ??? So nice when a plant comes back to life. I have some that could never survive the heat but there are those that struggle right on through year after year. :) Tammy
