Nope

not a starfish on a rock nestled against succulents.  This is a corpse plant, enticing pollinating flies by its rotten scent. Bancroft Gardens is a treasure trove of the unexpected as well life should be.

When tomorrow arrives

one of my happy places opens

up. I will see  succulents awash with bloom & rain drops.  

I anticipate the shape of each fractal much like a poem or the scent of something yummy.

I wish the same for you.  

Bancroft Gardens, Walnut Creek.
