A Rarity Among Plants
By Mark Flippo
Haleakala silversword, Argyroxyphium sandwicense subsp. macrocephalum, in bloom, with Haleakala Volcano crater in background. Known for its striking rosette, the Silversword grows for 20-90 years before the single reproductive event at the end of its life, at which time it produces a large (up to six feet tall) inflorescence with as many as 600 flower heads.
It makes me think you're never to old to make your life count for God! Some of these plants don't bloom until their 90 years old! Wisdom works in it's own time and not by man's time frame. There is always hope for all of us! Let Jesus work out His will in you. Give yourself time to mature! God has a time for you to shine!
