When our daughter was born, we planted two Mountain Ash trees in the backyard. One died the year after we planted it, but the other one is still growing. The Alabama climate doesn't seem to agree with it too much, because the leaves drop off in the summer and come back in the fall. The leaves were still green up until December, and finally started turning red a couple of weeks ago. The tree is now well over my head, and will hopefully grow to be big and strong. It is nice to still have a patch of red in the middle of the winter tans and greys.
