Tall Neighbors
When I moved into my house fifteen years ago, I could touch the very tops of both of these trees, which were little more than shrubs. Now they are the tallest trees within sight.
I was invited by Cee from ceenphotography.com to participate in a challenge called Seven Day Nature Photo Challenge. (Check out Cee’s nature photos as well as her thousands of other wonderful photographs by clicking on the ceenphotography link above.
As part of this challenge, I am to post one nature photograph a day for one week and to ask one other person to join the challenge each day. Today I ask you to check out the photography of Suzy Blue and I’m nominating her to take part in the Seven Day Nature Challenge as well.

Do you know what kind of palm trees they are? They are gorgeous … and fast growing, too. Great shot.

Washingtonia. They are really messy, unfortunately… Shedding their blossoms like rain into the pool right now.
I also have queen palm trees..
but these big fellas are Washingtonias. Expensive to maintain as I have to have men climb them to trim off the big seed pods and dead limbs a couple of times a year.
It takes 4 men…two on the ground and two in the air.
But beats doing it myself or having one of those really long heavy seed pods fall on my head.
