The Laurel Is Hardy


Scott told me the winter of 1969 was so cold the laurel lost their leaves. Assuming they were dead, many Vancouverites cut down their hedges in February. Those who didn't found them sprouting leaves in March -- and then, miraculously, flowering in April. Last year I noticed a few instances of flowering laurel. This year, many more.
