Baby Orangutans...

Last week I pruned my tree fern after having removed its winter jacket. It always seems so brutal, but within days, new leaves emerge from the centre, uncurling their way upwards.






It's like they've just been itching to get going. You can almost see them grow right in front of your eyes.




They remind me of baby orangutans stretching their little arms up...
