A Tree Grows in Phoenix


Remember this tipu tree?
It is so ginormous.
Seriously, it shades most of the house.
I love it.
I made Love Man put Christmas lights on it for first two winters we had it.
I wanted to keep it warm.
We lost two trees due to near freezing temperatures.
They usually occur during the week between Christmas and New Years.
It worked.
Laugh all you want.
It is a proven fact to save non-established trees from the lower temperatures.
Just ask the nice folks at MV Nursery,
that is their advice.
