U is for Unfurl.
I love the way that ferns look quite prehistoric before they completely unfurl.

Ferns have had a lot of practice at being prehistoric. A perfect selection for U'r post.
Thanks for looking by.

I tried to figure out what your word was from the picks before I scrolled down and I couldn't! Very creative!

This is a very ingenious choice for U. I agree, the unfurling of the ferns as they begin to grow is something to enjoy. Are these in your garden?
If I'd gotten around to posting today, I would have used umbrella, but fortunately it's not raining here today.
(Comment moderation today is very appropriate: the letters are "affog," which is what I'm in today.)

Ferns are one of my favourite plants! I have some in my garden and I love to see their fronds unfurling, in the growing season.

Thanks for coming to my virtual party, on Saturday. It was a great day.

Beautiful photos! I love the way ferns curl, and I love how green they become. They're actually fairly prehistoric plants, aren't they?

The fronds of ferns unfurling fascinate me (try saying that quickly)! The best time to photograph them. x

What a good idea. I have some nice unfurly fern photos. I hadn't thought of a topic and then didn't have time. And now it's a bit late.

Ferns are beautiful plants. I have a natural garden on the cliff next to my cabin. Ferns can cling to some of the most precarious spots and brighten up a dark rock face. I invite you to come see my U is for Use and Re-Use. -- Margy
