Isn’t that the truth…. lots of shades of white and brown this time of the year… I’m going to go find some as soon as it gets above 30 degrees which WON’T be today.
Whatever it is, there’s alot of it growing out here, too. I think it might be some sort of sage. I’ll dig out my range plant book and see what I can find out.
Lovely image ! I love the quote too. It reminds me of an Art Teacher I had in my last year of High School. He taught me to really SEE the details in the world around me, starting with his simple assertion that snow isn’t white. If you really look at it in different light conditions it can be blue or pink or greenish. That really opened my eyes and I am so grateful.

Beauty is where you find it, isn’t it?

Okay! We’ll trade some white for some off-white. 🙂 Now you’ve got me wondering if this stuff can be dyed…

Beautiful picture!
I leave my ornamental grasses (20+) in place all winter because I think they look wonderful when they are brown and white, too.

CeeCee,
The image in my mind of your ornamental grasses in winter is lovely. We absolutely need to replant our pampas grass after it was eaten by the boys. 😀
