The grasses are so pretty and your tea might be similar to our Rooibos (red-bush ) in South Africa. And WOW to the Juniper tree. I never knew it was a tree, always thought of it as a bush/shrub. Thanks for this delightful post. Have a great day.

LOL! It will now be the 'Pinyon Pine' room which I think is sad. The former name would have opened up some great conversation about plants and old west history that will now be sadly forgotten. Short-sighted!
