These pot plants were found beside the verandah of an apartment block built on an extremely noisy and dusty main road in an industrial zone, but the owner must be thankful that the flat does not face the street; despite this, the back yard of the verandah is located among a steel scrapyard, not the nicest of places to live, obviously.
The owner of the pot plants must have great affection for nature and living organisms. Maybe nature in its wild form is difficult to access for them, maybe they were born in a village, maybe they just love the colours of nature in their purest form. Whatever it is, I felt the owner's presence in this topsy turvy mix of living objects, imagining someone sitting outside in the cool evening breeze when the industrial complex has closed down after the day's business, nurturing the plants and enjoying their lot.
a natural buffer from the industrious noisy humans?!
ReplyDeleteA fence made by plants gives freshness and isolation to the owner!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to ensure that some green is within eye view when you come outside in the morning! It filters human metals! I notice there is a climbing plant happening there too! Maybe that's to take up remaining space! Interesting post!
ReplyDeleteAgain with the pot plants!
ReplyDeleteI'm constantly entertained by national variations of the English language. I spent part of a college year in London living in with a family - the first night the man of the house asked me what time I wanted him to knock me up - a phrase that in American English means get me pregnant and in English English means wake me up. He said the look on my face was priceless as I struggled to come up with a polite response to the concept of him knocking me up!
That's quite a varied "garden." But I am sure you are right that it brings the owner(s) great joy. They look well-tended.
ReplyDeleteIt maybe bring the owner great joy, but what about the poor neighbor that needs to see all of this. What a mess :)!
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a garden, I have only a balcony. So I wish I had a garden ,too.
but the plants in this picture are too many!!
It must be hard to take care of them. Because insects must increase:(
The apartment owner seems to be following the adage: Bloom where you are planted.
