  6. I wonder if some birds planted those? Our strongest tree was planted by birds. Lovely twins!

  11. That's easy, it's a snapdragon. The poor thing grew in a tiny amount of soil so it looks like the usual foliage didn't develop.

  12. They certainly are a strong plant to grow there and pretty too, and so is the second photo.

  14. Yes, snapdragon which is noticeably stunted, after all it's showing it's colors without much support!

  15. They look like Antirrhinums /Snap Dragons to me . Looks like they've seeded them selves there and are quite happy delighting all the bees and passers by ! Have a beautiful day ! 💐🐝🐝

  16. There’s something quietly lovely about stumbling on blooms like that in everyday places. They almost feel like a little gift from the day itself.

  26. That's so neat that they are just growing there.

  27. They look like a type of carpet rose? I think...

  28. Hi Bill. That first picture of the two flowers immediately made me think of my word "resilience" because they look determined to show their beauty in spite of their surroundings. May I borrow that picture for an upcoming post?
