Where the purple trees grow

I'm in a daze. Honestly I think my blood pressure is low or something. I almost thought I was seeing things today when, on my way back from Gaza's ghost airport for the photostory I'm working on, I saw a purple tree...! I know for those of you who have seen the glory of American or European springs won't be surprised, but it was quite an incongruous-and pleasant site to see in Gaza, which saw back-to-back, by the minute, thunderous shelling and sound-bombs all day long. So behold-the purple tree of Gaza! :)
