Nature Art

16/8/2013

 
A much needed break from visual stimulii, saw me getting some dirt under my finger nails! Great! Actually I like gardening in Melbourne as the soil is so friable the weeds easily are pulled. A lovely warm day and a pair of secateurs...started attacking a climbing Jasmine that was threatening to cause a fence to collapse, and a plant that I hadn't seen before, that had interesting pods. I carefully put some of those aside, and continued cutting til coffee time, when I explored an interesting piece of rock that i found in the soil, as well as the innards of the pod. I combined the 2, and had constructed some Nature Art, and spent a happy time photographing it.
I have since found out the plant is called Moth Vine, native to southern Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay, and is deemed a weed as it smothers small trees and depresses their growth. Not surprisingly by what I found inside, it reproduces by wind dispersal.  The piece of rock or coral maybe remains a mystery...
