In the sway of a branch a hanging garden. When you grow weary of the clouds and rains, know that this is a rain forest, and the rain forest is breathing with life. Gratitude. #Esquimalt and #Songhees territories. #Mosstodon #fern #licoricefern #rainforest #shinrinyoku #forestbathing

The new seasonal growth of Licorice Fern (Polypodium glycyrrhiza) emerges through the leaf fall of our Weeping Japanese Maple (Acer
palmatum var. dissectum). The summer dormant fern gives a pop of fresh green through the carpet of red leaves for visual relief in autumn.
