I wish I can grow my own fire tree. It would be nice to wake up in the morning and have all those orange leaves and flowers scattered in my front yard, me sipping coffee in the front porch and reading the morning paper. It gives me a fresh feeling of freedom, away from all the noise, stress and rigidity of the city. It makes me think of Autumn in other countries. I guess if I lived in a foreign land, that would be my favorite season. It's like a rebirth. To me it's a sign of new beginnings. It makes me hope more for all things nice and beautiful to come.
I wonder how many years it would take for a tree to grow so tall and mighty like this one. B says it's approximately 20 to 30 years. Wow. That's a long time. But definitely worth the wait.
