Rust Meets Rust

Curly Dock gets added to my ever-growing and consciousness-raising list of non-natives — a perennial, widely naturalized throughout California that can grow in many habitats. Nonetheless, it is a hardy plant and requires no summer water. I dig some and move them to dry gardens where they are at home with rusty garden art. Rumex crispus.

  • What effective russet tones in this shot. Reminds me of the Cor-10 steel used for massive outdoor sculptures. This photo has a great play of textures, and an interesting perspective. Hard to tell exactly what the background is.
