As spring deepens and the evenings stretch softly toward summer, this week’s episode invites you to rest beneath the ethereal bloom of the Foxglove Tree — Paulownia tomentosa. With its pale lavender flowers that blossom on bare branches, this remarkable tree appears like something from a dream, flowering in silence before its great green leaves unfold. We’ll drift through its ancient Chinese origins, its mythical ties to the phoenix, and the delicate music of its timber, all while imagining the petals falling like lavender snow. With soothing narration, gentle history, and the poetry of Robert Herrick, this episode offers a quiet meditation on transience, grace, and renewal. Let the soft blossoms guide you into stillness, and the whispering leaves cradle you into rest. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
