Anyone else seen this spot and appreciate the swing placement? I could see myself as a kid out there when I pass by.

I've done some pretty awesome shots just having the "let's try" attitude. 🙌

Got a shot of Hen and Chicks today! (Sempervivum) catching the sunlight, and the colors are looking unreal today.
​For a plant that’s basically bulletproof, it has some of the coolest patterns you’ll find in the garden. They call them "Hen and Chicks" because the main plant (the Hen) throws out a bunch of smaller clones (the Chicks) around the base to take over the space.
​A few quick facts about these things:
​Tough as nails: Their Latin name means "always living." They can easily survive freezing winters and scorching summers that would kill off most other plants.
​Sun and stress: Those sharp red and orange tips actually get more intense when the plant gets blasted by direct sun or colder weather.
​Historical defense: Back in the day, the Romans and Europeans used to grow them on the roofs of their houses because they believed it warded off lightning strikes.
​Low maintenance, looks great, and practically thrives on neglect. My kind of plant.
