Much like the last decade, 2019 contained a
multitude of moments of unsurpassed personal ugliness. But I could not say
goodbye to the past year without taking note of beauty that went against the
grain.
That beauty was physical rather than emotional, in
the form of the species popularly known as the “Bottle Palm.” But any group that can maintain this and the other
specimens on display at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens in Pittsburgh can’t be all bad.
(For more on the conservatory, a gem of the city of Pittsburgh, please see this prior post of mine.)
