Title: Life on the Edge
Post by: Shortsighted on June 08, 2020, 07:26:22 PM

It’s ironic that newly planted flowers are struggling to survive, despite efforts made toward watering them appropriately, whereas I discover a healthy-looking plant clinging to the lower margin of my watering can, anchored and fed by little more than a smear of substrate, only a stage above actual biofilm. Life found a place to grow where there is barely a place at all. What tenacity! As for the flowers, well they are on life-support.

Very surreal. This reminds me a quote from Jurassic Park (the book and not the movie): Nature finds its way.
