This is a mess. But if you could respond more to the color of the flowers than the cracks in the pavement, you might find it spectacular. Almost everything else has died. The ground, the pavement and the curb offer nothing. It’s odd that this particular plant with all its potential beauty managed to survive. It should have died from neglect. But it did not grudgingly survive, as though there were no options open to it, it thrived. In the month since I took this picture it has doubled in size. In the middle of nowhere it sends out beautiful blooms in an effort, one supposes, to catch the eye of passing motorists, or the eyes of passing insects. It caught the eye of one pedestrian.
