Much mangled and stunted by frequent low mowing and
whipper-snipping. A small population, surviving precariously amongst assorted weeds and turfgrass in a damp shaded spot on the verge, southwest side of apartment blocks. But... today I observed flower buds. I am hoping like crazy that the next bout of whipper-snipping does not happen until AFTER these lovely little plants have had a chance to flower and set seed. Brisbarren is full of little treasures like this that are ignored, overlooked, despised, trampled upon and mowed and sprayed out of existence. I only hope these do not cop a heaping dose of glyphosate.
