For such a humble wildflower, growing on the edge of a parking lot, this sure is one overly complex plant.
The flowers change color from pale pink to blue, and all the shades in between. The main leaves are soft-edged but the tiny ones near the flowers are spiky as can be. And, for that matter, look suspiciously similar to a bee. There’s so many different flowers, in all the stages of life, and they cluster so tight together.
It’s not a very large plant, just a few inches tall. But the more you stare, the more you see. It’s almost fractal-like…
