Flowers in the Rock

These yellow flowers are growing on a vertical cliff face, right out of cracks in the rock. Their tenacity and adaptability are even more amazing than their beauty. The rock looks solid, but has just enough cracks so that these plants can send out roots that find moisture and nutrients.

I suppose we'd all like to be planted in lush, deep, fertile soil. But these flowers are a reminder that beauty is possible anywhere.
See Sabbatical Crosses (and others). Order prints, etc.
