Quiz ↓Ráno vzduch voňal sladko a sucho. Polly kráčala pomaly cez nízke striebristo-zelené kríky, ktoré pokrývali svah hory.
Prechádzala popri rozmarín a tymiane a vôňa rastlín ju sprevádzala všade, kam išla. Ľudia hovoria, že táto hora je slávna záhrada, a teraz pochopila prečo.
Na týchto svahoch rastú stovky divých rastlín. Niektoré z nich sú také vzácne, že rastú takmer nikde inde na svete.
Medzi skalami rástla malá vejárová palma a borovice sa nakláňali nad bledý kameň. Polly si sadla do ich tieňa a počúvala vietor, ako sa preháňa cez konáre.
