I have survived neglect and abuse in childhood and thrive as an adult.<br /><br />I am amused and impressed by dandelions: The first crop in spring grow tall, then the first lawnmowing cuts everything down, and the next crop of dandelions grows exactly to the height just below the lawnmower blades. Yellow buttons dot the lawn and advertise, "We survive!".Keera Ann Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07466103379725251225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-6919056864914084212010-06-18T09:23:25.461+02:002010-06-18T09:23:25.461+02:00http://theonlycin.wordpress.com/2010/06/18/friday-...http://theonlycin.wordpress.com/2010/06/18/friday-flash-55-words-3/<br /><br />Thank you for the blogging friendship!Linda Bob Grifins Korbetis Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01546696605935159862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-46449010407960355322010-06-17T19:46:27.866+02:002010-06-17T19:46:27.866+02:00Philip, Nessa, Brian, Mahmood, gaelikaa, Lynne, Et...Philip, Nessa, Brian, Mahmood, gaelikaa, Lynne, Eternally…, Tony, Hilary, Claudia, Michael, The Bach, Alesa, Sumandebray, sprinkles, Rosezilla, Lulda, tony, ladifi, slommler, Paul, Land of shimp, Daryl, Donna, Lee (welcome), Janine, Kat, Stevie and Kata, thank you all for your wonderful variety of sentiments and opinions about the relation between plants and people.

It just appeared in my front yard one and I left it alone cause I liked the way it looked. But then it flourished and I moved it to the back yard where it flourished even more. I don't tend to it and it seems to get by well on its own. Periodically it will blossom with little white flowers and then yield an abundance of spicy little peppers. I like how it gets by fine on its own and doesn't require a lot of care.<br /><br />Lee<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a>Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-1753557529199598622010-06-16T17:38:33.861+02:002010-06-16T17:38:33.861+02:00What a beautiful post, Zuzana.

Hello Zuzana!<br /><i>weeds</i> are in the eye of the beholder i guess.......when i was last in Italy (a few weeks ago)i saw some beautiful weeds growning on the roadsides.I had never seen their beauty before.They were turning to seed so I bagged a load up & brought them back to England . I have been scattering them on my garden here.Hopefully, I will have the most exotic weeds in Yorkshire next year!tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03746435400444226665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-54049155720757559772010-06-15T22:34:16.186+02:002010-06-15T22:34:16.186+02:00The chives are beautiful...like you my friend!

They are not very attractive, but when closely looked at, they have a certain beauty that finally wins you over. They usually exist in tropical weather, which usually needs a lot of sun or plenty of water, which makes them have a strong and thick layer to survive. I'm rambling here, but I like this choice.<br />Always with the best topics my friend! I wish you a lovely day.Claushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06803540562431030465noreply@blogger.com
