After Hurricane Katrina's winds subsided one thing was very evident--the trees that were left standing were naked of their leaves and the Spanish moss that grows so prolifically in southeast Louisiana. Some people say it all rode on the winds some four hours away to Jackson, Mississippi, where the residents awoke to find moss on their lawns and cars and houses.
After almost two years of trees, mostly our beautiful live oaks, denuded of moss we see that it has made a marvelous comeback and is growing stronger than ever.
Nature heals itself.
