Growing on the spidery branches of this tree is a fern like plant called a "Resurrection Fern". It is named so for it's ability to survive long periods of drought by curling up it's fronds and appearing brown and dead. However, with only a little bit of rain, the plant will re-open and be green and lush again. It rained on the morning of my wedding, and stopped just soon enough (literally fifteen minutes before the ceremony) for the plant to "resurrect" and become green again. Obviously, I took this as a very prophetic symbol of the marriage I was entering into. It was truly a gift, and I am SO glad it rained.
