A Drizzling Winter Afternoon


A Beautiful Sunny Winter Day!
















Rubber Plant
印度橡膠樹
It can grow to 98–131 ft tall, 
with a stout trunk up to 26.6 ft in diameter. 
The trunk develops aerial and buttressing roots 
to anchor it in the soil 
and help support heavy branches.











It's a sunny winter day before Christmas.



The puffy clouds in the sky are just like 
the whipped cream for dessert.
