The Front Porch

This bush falls down every winter. I think it's reaching for sunlight. The first few years I tried to lift it back up but no need. Once the sunlight hits it, will pop right back up.
The Desert Willow is the centerpiece of the front porch. Somewhere between May 10th and May 14th a single flower will bloom, the next day 10 more, and the following day hundreds more followed by six to ten hummingbirds at any one time. At the base of the Desert Willow in the afternoon the side blotched lizards will move about five feet up the trunk of the tree and hang on head facing the ground. When I water all the bugs runs up the tree straight into the mouths of the lizards.
