A little bit of autumn
Although I live in a tropical climate now, I remain a Yankee at heart and for as much as I enjoy the fact that it will be 80 degrees today, there are times when I miss a bright autumn day in Pennsylvania. Maple trees get all the praise for turning red but it was the gingkos that always got my heart racing. Gingkos turn the most joyous yellow I've ever seen and they are the perfect respite from the winter everybody knows is coming.

Gingkos hail from China originally but they've been naturalized in temperate climates the world over. They're a fascinating tree with a natural history that won't quit. So even though I never get a chance to see them anymore, I found something the other day that might bring a little of that gingko yellow into my otherwise tropical existence.
These extraordinary leaves are printed so realistically I had to appearance twice to ensure were not surely gingko leaves.
These gingko post-its are from the South Korean design firm Apree and so far as I can tell they don't have a US distributor. Hey US stationary and gift people, wanna make a whole lot of money? Get hold of Apree !
And for the rest of you, it doesn't stop with autumn gingko leaves, check out the rest of their stuff .
