James Roof silk tassel is a beautiful evergreen tree/shrub that has these wonderful long, silky catkins hanging down at the end of winter. I have a very tiny one in my yard, about a foot tall. I don’t want to think about how many years I will have to wait to be able to see its beautiful display.
The brainstorm.

Re: haiku about national symbols
I’m sorry I don’t know any such examples off the top of my head. I would try Google and put haiku “national symbols” into the search box. Good luck.
