The aspens at my house 'leafed out' this week. Winter was so lingering, they didn't even bother to flower this year, they just went to leaf. That means that three days ago, we woke to the most incredible color of green. The particular color of chartreuse green that new aspen leaves are is only available in Mother Nature's palette. My husband has tried to attain this color when dying things and it happens to be my mom's favorite color. It just seems like it is not to be reproduces by humans. Maybe if we figure out how to truly add pure light to things we will get it. Until then, we can all enjoy this naturally bright color as it bursts forth around us.
