Five Tongues - Limited Edition of 9 Print

Sempervirens The genus name Pentaglottis is Greek, meaning "five tongues", and the species name sempervirens is Latin, and means "always alive", or "evergreen". A short and brisk hike from Park Headquarters weaves through the coastal redwood trees, also known as Sequoia Sempervirens which are native to the coastal lands from southern Oregon to Central California, along the way spotting moss and five-fingered ferns, dark-eyed Juncos and the majestic redwood canopy above. Your hike journey quickly ends and opens to a 20-foot flowing waterfall quietly and gently falling to the blue and emerald green pool below. Listening to the quiet wind through the redwood trees and the tranquility of the water the business of life I found slowly slipping away moment by moment.
