The Evergreen Way

Why the Evergreen Metaphor?

Evergreens carve out a unique niche in every eco-system on earth. While most plants repeat the process of dormancy, growth, blossoming, yield and decay – evergreens have a different adaptive mechanism to stay green and to avoid the extreme cycles of other plants. Evergreens shed and replace leaves on a continual basis. The greenery that they shed serves two purposes: to put needed nutrients back into the soil and to make the soil more acidic and hence, inhospitable to other plant forms – but perfect for evergreens. Some evergreens thrive in rain forests, others in drought stricken areas. No matter their environment, they are resilient and adaptive.
