This Fern looked dead yesterday. It was brown and all shriveled. This shot was taken after a couple of hours of rain in the afternoon. You can find more info Here on this strange air plant

That is amazing to see. But I have always said, the Master's water does far more than I can ever do.

Next time it rains, I am going out to stand in it for a couple hours. LOL. That hing sure came back to life in a big way, didn't it? Excellent shot, Ed. Good focus, color and lighting. Well done.

Wonderful and interesting fern post, Ed.

The rain most certainly brought the fern to life. A beautful capture of nature, Ed ... I've never seen one grow from a tree like that also. Very well done.

Aptly named fern Huck. A few sips and it was back on top again. Ferns always remind me of feathers. Excellent colors.

I know about plants like this but I didn't know that if you add water, they'll spring back to life... What will they think of next? Nice lush shot of the little ferns.
