Description
The title came to me as I was gazing at this lovely image. So much variety of form and function in one plant and between plants! This beautiful creation is native to the Americas, of the genus tradescantia which comprises about 70 species. This one might be a hybrid, "bilberry ice", perhaps of t.ohiensis and t.virginiana. The spiderwort's range is from southern Canada to Northern Argentina, and various species bloom from May to September, producing small white, blue, violet or pink flowers with beautifully delicate center structures.
I love the beauty of nature and enjoy greatly wandering about 'taking pictures' and sharing them. When engaged in viewing beauty,natural or work of art, there is only seeing, no seen or seer, and that is such a relief from the 'I'm doing' or 'I'm thinking', etc. Getting lost in one's work may be finding oneself, and that is joy.
