Found on the blacktop

I found this bit of dried mud on the driveway three or four days after the last snowfall. Must have scraped it up when I went onto the lawn with the snowblower:


About three inches long and an inch wide, and half an inch thick, the mud of it. It was pretty well dried out, but still showing green and responding to the sunshine. Why did I rescue it? Because it was trying so hard.

View from the opposite side:


I grabbed a cold cuts container from our kitchen garbage, put some potting soil in it, and pressed the little piece of sod down into it:


Watered it real good:


And put it where it'd get some light (see bottom of picture):


Everything else in the picture is snapdragons, dug up from the garden late last fall. And cuttings for the garden for the spring.

The snapdragons bloom like crazy under the lights, but the cut flowers don't last.

All photos taken Sunday, Feb 27.
