Hearts and Flowers
Flowers volunteer in my yard all the time. Most of them get pulled out by the roots, simply because they are in the wrong spot. But this one charmed me completely.
Airborne seed? Undigested bird food? I don't know, but I'm going to let it stay and get as big as it wants to.
And this pair of deliberately planted vines makes me smile every year. Notice that the one on the right has lots of soil to spread its roots in, and a perfect amount of sun and shade. The one on the left has a tiny opening in the bricks, but it blooms its heart out every year. So, of course, the one on the left is a Bleeding Heart, and the one on the right is a Compassionate Conservative. (No offense, Republicans, it's just too good a line!)
