Where blades sweep and sand bleeds

"Where blades sweep and sand bleeds" is a love letter to quiet resilience, born in Golden Gate Park. Silvery-blue foliage, sharp as blades, glitters beside Hardy Fuchsia that bleeds crimson in the wind. It’s a story where fragile spirits collide and endure, standing unyielding in a world that often feels too fleeting, too vast.
