I take full resposibility for killing this plant. This flower appeared during the summer of '03 by the sidewalk near our front porch. It was a beautiful red flower of some sort. I thought it might be a weed but didn't want to kill it because of it's beauty.

Well, one day I decided to give it a better home and put it in the container you see above. That was the beginning of the end. It struggled during the fall and I didn't do anything about it. Then along came winter to put the final nail in the coffin.

Sorry little fella.

To me, it's beautiful. The shape, the lines and textures. Even the wilted plant. Great job.

Aww, poor thing. Looks like plants in my house too. I so do not have a green thumb. :( Interesting merging and juxtaposition of all the shapes here. Very geometrical! -- angela :)

Well, at least it gave its life in a good cause...the making of a PaD.
