Toad Lilies are one of those plants that always make me question basic assumptions of garden design. If we can sit down and stare at an individual flower that has this much poise, this much beauty, this much presence, then why do we even need gardens? And why must they be harmonious, balanced,.... Is is some kind of fractal thing? Maybe so. Then the same beauty we admire in a plant and a garden would exist at a higher level. I know galaxies are beautiful, I looked at a picture of one this morning. And if we go small, what then? Cells definitely are beautiful, and organelles, and I'm sure so too are molecules and atoms.No, I haven't been drinking, just thinking. Don't worry about it anyway, just look at the picture!
