If I was tiny, I would want to live in a horehound plant. They have so many looks and textures in their bag of tricks, all set to trigger a memory or mood. This image for some reason makes me think of a bridal party. The purity and demure white flower bridesmaids, the soft green leaf groomsmen and the ant in procession. Perhaps he’s the young ring bearer running about, allowed to let off steam so that he’s stay smartly dressed. Altogether a very nice group of young tender things.
Please come back tomorrow for a new “Weed Image of the Day” and let me know which ones you like.
We and our weeds are so much more than what we first appear to be.
I am inspired by things that grow in the ground and blow in the wind. I like to play in the dirt, especially when planting something, and can talk to trees. I like to look closely at things that at first seem small, insignificant, dried out, or contrary. Weeds may not welcome me with swollen blossoms, but the visual treasure they offer up, are well worth a look. Do you agree? I hope that these images of the oft-overlooked pest of our gardens and yards may give to you some delight, hope, or a new thought to make your daily journey just a little bit more inspired.
