Each flower popping against the verdant backdrop has a meaning: The African blue lilies are for his father's birthplace of Kenya; the jasmine represents his own birthplace, Hawaii; and the chrysanthemums, the official flower of Chicago, remind us of where Obama got his start as a political organizer and met Michelle LaVaughn Robinson.
It would have been climax enough, but at 5AM the next morning, Lee Burridge summoned up another of his religiously anticipated sunrise sets at Layla's, a verdant beachfront hangout where the vibes were somewhere between early Ibiza and modern Tulum—everyone was approachable and weird and totally comfortable in how they expressed themselves.
Gamora's (Zoe Saldana) green skin is brighter than Drax's (Dave Bautista) army green epidermis, and both characters are of a different shade than the verdant green in the film's opening scenes in Missouri, or the emerald shades on Ego's home planet, which is awash in a hue that would make Willy Wonka blush.
Set against South Africa's verdant landscape of weed-braided dirt paths and worn, pastel-colored huts, the movie feels like it was staged by its main character, Khethiwe, a young girl living in a small, isolated village terrorized by adolescent bullies and, perhaps more pressingly, the leopard stalking neighborhood pets by night.

SOC TRANG, Vietnam — When the rice shoots began to wither on Lam Thi Loi's farm in the heart of the Mekong Delta, a usually verdant region of Vietnam, she faced a hard choice: Let them die in the parched earth, or pump salty water from the river to give them a chance.
However, if Cuba's ecological health was indeed accidental, "then Haiti could be expected to be a verdant ecological paradise, instead of being the most environmentally devastated country in the region, with just a tiny fraction of its forest cover intact," Jim Barborak, former program leader at Conservation International, once told National Geographic.

The verdant oasis is picturesquely landscaped and enclosed enough to feel quaint and protected, and yet it is almost entirely encircled by a glass grid of apartments (a whopping 709 units are wedged into the building), which could end up giving the space an exhibitionist atmosphere not unlike that of the High Line.

Her most recent collection was inspired by the year she lived in London, where she spent many afternoons walking alone in the city's verdant parks: A green tourmaline and aquamarine necklace resembles a chain of slightly variegated fronds, while a green opal rosette pendant is surrounded by emeralds that evoke gleaming, thorny foliage.
The prospectors had unearthed what would come to be called the Patricia Emerald: a dazzling 12-sided crystal roughly the size of a soup can, with a weight of 73 carats — more than a quarter of a pound — and a verdant color so pure and vivid you'd swear the stone was photosynthesizing.
To draw attention to historical monuments all over Belgium, florist Geoffroy Mottart stages herbaceous interventions by adding botanical beards and verdant hairdos to statues of luminaries and potentates like Victor Rousseau and King Leopold II. This clash between history and brightly-colored floral facial hair lends the otherwise-somber effigies an air of tender whimsy.
There's also the Diamond Falls Botanical Gardens, six verdant acres with mineral baths and a waterfall that changes color depending on the mix of rainwater and volcanic minerals, and Sulphur Springs Park, billed as a "drive-in volcano," since one can drive right up to a live volcano that belches steam redolent of rotten eggs.
He has lived with a roommate who was his sponsor during a truncated stint in sex rehab, sharing a 1,700-square-foot furnished apartment in a verdant glass complex convenient to a midrange shopping mall, said local residents and associates familiar with his circumstances, who would only describe Mr. Weinstein's daily routine without attribution.

Tom Andolora, a voice teacher and playwright who now lives in New York City, said he remembered being transported as a 12-year-old while gazing works like Rico y Ortega's painting of a Venetian canal or "In the Garden" by Boldini, which shows a woman in a long white dress beneath a verdant tree.

And that night after thinking back on the stories we were told about sad souls walking the verdant fields of the resort I woke at 3am and cast my weary eyes to the edge of a low ridge to the south, searching for a company of hollow soldiers walking through the cropped grass toward homes they would never find.
Aged flesh is so fertile, grows excrescences: papules, papillomas, skin tags, moles that have to be checked yearly; yet the hair thins out, underarm and pubic, as if the soil had changed to one that no longer supports the verdant shrubbery, but instead nourishes an astonishing variety of wild mushrooms — beautiful, if you have an eye.
She wears coat dresses more often than not, she's a huge fan of Gianvito Rossi's suede heels —regularly stepping out in a trusty black suede pair from the designer — and as of late, she's been quite keen to rich emerald green pieces, with her most recent outing being proof of her affinity for the deep verdant hue.
Where Wild Hunt wore its most serious of faces for the longest time, breaking the glowering only for some awful am-dram and stuffed-animal sexy-times, Blood and Wine is easier on the gloom and doom, ostensibly one long monster hunt set against a gloriously green-and-gold backdrop of verdant southern lands, all sunflowers and blue skies.
Nestled in verdant wine country and on the edge of leading oyster-producing areas, this elegant city on the Garonne River melds a history as a wealthy shipping center with a more recent resurgence in arts and infrastructure to make for a captivating — and mouthwatering — destination that's easy to navigate on a system of modern trams.
But the history of Deadwood is spread all around in Mount Moriah's picturesque verdant slopes: In the Chinese section, which contains few markers (most Chinese sent their dead back to the old country for burial) but does have a ceremonial burner (for religious ceremonies) that has been recently restored, and in the Jewish section, Mount Zion (a.k.a.
CRESPIÈRES, France — There is something almost cinematic about Château de Wideville, the 17th-century residence outside Paris that is the country retreat of Valentino Garavani and his business partner, Giancarlo Giammetti, with its verdant lawns (mowed in perfect strips in contrasting directions to create a two-tone effect), storied past and squad of black-suited golf-cart drivers.
"I'm running for the Senate because I have the right kind of experience and the actual track record that it will take to start working across party lines to fix the mess in Washington and bring common sense back to our government," he said, clad in a hunting vest and sitting on a porch, a verdant expanse of lawn behind him.
The 19th-century former shoe factory has been transformed into an urban retreat: quiet, light, homey, verdant with plants and the brush-marked glow of a pistachio-green heritage lime plaster that adorns every angle of the space — a haven from the hubbub below and an elegant rebuttal to the Scandinavian-style chill so pervasive in the city's postindustrial spaces.
The cataclysm that befell the island is, by all accounts, horrific: scores of communities with roads and telephones cut off; hospitals with dwindling fuel for generators; once verdant vistas reduced to acres of spindly trees stripped of leaves; tens of thousands of homes blasted into splintered piles of timber; and people left rationing crackers and whatever water they can scavenge.
CreditCreditMike Belleme for The New York Times Paris, Ky. — After Bill Bissett, the president of the Kentucky Coal Association, told me that "President Obama cares more about Paris, France, than he does about Paris, Kentucky" — a sentiment that seems broadly shared around here — I decided to check out this little town with a big name set amid the verdant undulations of picket-fenced Kentucky horse country.
And as midnight neared on Tuesday — hours after a powerful, deadly earthquake struck central Mexico — Parque España, the verdant refuge of dog-walkers and young lovers in the Condesa neighborhood of the capital, had become the venue for something else: a frenetic, impromptu relief center, where hundreds of volunteers, under the leadership of nobody in particular, had created an emergency distribution point for food and supplies.
Far north of the border where they were first apprehended, behind the walls of a taupe building with tidy landscaping in the verdant Shenandoah Valley west of Charlottesville, detainees at the center of the lawsuit described being beaten while handcuffed, slammed against walls, stabbed with pens, subjected to anti-Latino and other racist remarks, and forced to spend hours strapped to the restraint chair.
She describes the region with a cartographer's precision and an ethnographer's clarity, drawing clear distinctions between the relative metropolis of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in the south, where the sisters are kidnapped, the verdant town of Esso with its hot springs and wood cabins in the middle, and Palana, a tiny city of Soviet architecture nestled in a valley at the foot of the Koryak Mountains in the sparsely populated north.
Or for some real exercise, which I tried to do several days a week as Hong Kong bureau chief when not on reporting trips, there was a 224-minute walk up many steep switchbacks to the top of the tram tracks, with magnificent views of Victoria Harbor and its skyscrapers in one direction and a glistening reservoir, a verdant valley and the South China Sea in the other direction.
The suite is composed of three sections, or movements, individuated predominantly through color: the acid-raked reds, greens, blacks, and ochers of "atomic 22020" to "atomic 04" (all works are dated 2019, titled in lowercase and numbered), followed by the liquid blue swipes and mossy stains of numbers 05 to 09, and the verdant greens that spread across 10 though 17, forcing out lingering remnants of contrasting hues.
It began in 1982 with an advertisement in The Village Voice and grew into an annual 32-mile, 19973-hour hike through Hudson River, Riverside, East River and a dozen other littoral parks as well as barricaded, abandoned and bedraggled railroad yards and other tracts that, while not actually parks at the time, could have been linked in a verdant belt around Manhattan some day if he had mustered enough public support.
Mr. Goddard regaled me with stories of his school years: the boy who swam out in the freezing English Channel on a dare, needing to be rescued by the Royal Air Force Marine Branch; and the student who ran away and hid out in the undercliff, a verdant wilderness formed by past landslides that sloped from the school's cliff-top location down to the sea, and was the site of many a pubescent amorous assignation.
The verdant island of little farms that the narrator so admires is in the process of being destroyed, first by two years of rain so intense that the crops fail, then drought so severe that the new plantings are blown away, then the abandoned farms are bought up by the host, whose new plantings of eucalyptus catch fire in lightning storms and burn everything down, including the remaining farms, which makes food prices skyrocket and drives the indigenous population to flee en masse.
It means the worlds in Phantom, unlike those in the FX-cluttered and endlessly greenscreened Episodes II and III, hold up remarkably well: Naboo a verdant future Venice, its palaces inhabited by a luxuriously attired aristocracy; the Gungans' underwater world, a hive of enormous illuminated baubles and Vernean subs; Tatooine, a parched crook's paradise that's home to Phantom's podracing sequence, one of the few simple set-piece pleasures of the prequel trilogy; and Coruscant, a bustling, planet-size metropolis that's the shining capital of the universe.
While out from under that tent, in a world beyond the safety of screens, our reality-TV president (of "WrestleMania" IV, V and VII and "The All New Mickey Mouse Club") threatens to strip health care from actual American children and annihilate countries filled with people who live and breathe, there is something to be said for an hour of fantasy in which success is based on merit, kindness reigns and the ultimate price paid is ejection from the warmth of that KitchenAid Eden and a walk across a verdant lawn.
