Welcome to my #treesquare post hooking up with BeckyB for this month of July and all things trees! I am also calling this my #weeklysmile post as I just LOVE trees and thought not only are trees so important to our planet, they also make me smile. I have an idea of a theme and it doesn’t include this first photo which technically isn’t really a tree and I thought it was a good opener. π
By now I think you see my theme for the trees. Yes, it is the beautiful palm trees. I just had to look them up and there are about 2600 species of palms. Most of them living in tropical, subtropical and warm temperate climates. They are very much a part of Southern California landscape. California is such a big state that it could actually be two states if you were to cut it in half as not only does the climate change but so does the landscape and tree-scape. Northern California is home to the giant sequoias, a far cry from palm trees! It is such a diverse state. So much to see and do in California! π
This just makes me smile! There are so many trees out there and I have seen some beautiful tree posts with gorgeous tree photos. This is just a sample of the palms that are around and I really didn’t want to let another week go by as I really wanted to share my tree square post and thought this would make a great smile post too!
I hope you all have a great rest of the week!
Smiling, Tree Loving Gal,

I do not see palm trees very often – for some reason there aren’t many in New Hampshire π Trees in general make me smile, and this is a great display of them, plus the flowers.

Hahaha, I’m not surprised! But then we don’t have the forests of trees anywhere close by like NH! Those sunflowers were amazing and when we rode by the neighbors across the street were out and said everyone who rides by has been taking a photo of those! So pretty!
