Redbud Planted to Honor Willy

We planted a Forest Pansy Redbud yesterday that my children bought Mary in honor of her father, Willy Holmes, who passed away earlier this year. I wrote about the funeral in an earlier post, here. Last night, a dragonfly was buzzing around the area when I went out to check on some pots in my workshop, and this morning's fog felt like a gift from the heavens shall we say.


We chose a spot in between our showroom and our workspaces, which we think will develop into a courtyard when I build a kiln shed and tool shed. The tree can grow to 30 feet tall and 25 feet wide.
