It doesn’t take too much imagination to picture a bygone era in which a horse drawn carriage is carrying a Georgian Belle down this Savannah Street. Majestic Southern Live Oak trees line each side arching over to form a living, green canopy high above. Spanish moss hangs down from the branches waving in the sultry late afternoon breeze not unlike grandpa’s wispy grey beard.


The eligible beauty wearing a layered flowing white dress, head back laughing at something someone had called out. One elegant gloved hand holding the reins and the other clutching at her oversized hat which is threatening to blow away in the breeze.


An interesting fact is, that Spanish Moss is neither from Spain nor is it a moss and is instead is a flowering plant in the family of bromeliads. Being an epiphyte it absorbs nutrients and water through its leaves from the air and rainfall. It generally grows upon larger trees in tropical and subtropical climates, native to much of Mexico, Bermuda, The Bahamas, Central America, South America, southern United States, and the West Indies. 


For me Spanish Moss is an unusual plant and one that only grows only in specific locations making it intriguing and slightly mysterious and worthy of a little research and consideration. #nature
