'Broom is the anti-rose. The cure for blousiness. Stylish and sleek, strength from the elements. A plant for our time and our future. Better yet, it’s wild and free.'

Brilliant prose Jack. So atmospheric, and captures Broom perfectly. Thanks!

Thanks for this Jack - really beautifully written. We have a lot of broom here in the uk - in the hot weather it smells of coconut ! Lovely ~ ~ especially by the sea.

That might be gorse you are thinking of Lucy, with the coconut smell? Broom tends to be a bit more vanilla-y. Though it is all over the UK as well.
