What are the chances of a Celtic Hawthorne growing in a Celtic woman's yard in the U.S.? Evidently quite good, because one did 🍀...

Said to be the entrance to the otherworld, Irish folklore sites ruin when a lone tree is cut, angering the fairies who live there. Never fall asleep under a hawthorn tree. You will be taken away by the fairies 🎃 ✨✨✨ The photo is of a Hawthorne branch with lush green leaves and red berries covered by raindrops. Bokeh can be seen in the background in the sun rays are coming in from the upper right.

I had to shrink the picture slightly for Bluesky, there was even more of the blue sky.
It was just a stunning moment in a beautiful place and I was so lucky to be there. #LoveNature 🙏😊
