An Umbrella Tree Plant/Schefflera from a different angle. There is a leaf on each of the red 'stems'.

No wonder some folks refer to them 'Wagon Wheel' plants.

This one grows in a pot on the front steps.  It is too cold and wet to venture any further. 

(an afterthought: @maggiezlenz is 4 months old today!)

One of our teachers keeps the main entrance at school looking great with beautiful potplants.
 (and food for thought!) 
Even old shoes get a second chance!

This photo would probably do very well in a "Guess What" game!!
When I look at it I see sugary, caramel, honeycomb, home-made,  yummy sweet stuff!

Actually..... while I decided to answer a few e-mails, I forgot that I had milk on the stove!
Fortunately it was on very low heat. Once I poured off the milk, this is what remained in the bottom of the pot.
Don't be fooled by looks - the dog would'nt even eat it!
(The milk was thick and creamy though & made a delicious mug of rich, frothy coffee)
