when Mimosa comes into bloom if we had any sense we'd drop whatever else we were doing and have a weeklong festival to celebrate silly season.  a plant so clearly designed by Dr Seuss deserves no less of us.  but then it is one of those exotic invasives that I do go on about, so perhaps a low key approach is more suitable. 

this isolated specimen is the first one I've seen this year.  over the next few days it will be joined by many others and their heady fragrance will fill the air around and after dusk.  if you're out for an evening walk, take a moment to enjoy it.
