Enid A. Haupt Garden behind the Smithsonian Castle in Washington, D.C. Going to the garden before going home was an excellent idea. I actually felt relaxed when I got home. Thank you for all the compliments. This got to #12 on Explore which is my best ever by a huge margin.

Malva sylvestris, known as common mallow or zebra hollyhock (although it is not a true hollyhock, but it is a relative), growing in the park behind my building. The park has a few raised beds with concrete walls. They're full of dry, hard clay and rarely, if ever, watered. Nonetheless, these -- along with cosmos and daylily -- all seem to thrive in them. Someone planted them a few years and they reseed themselves annually. They're cheerful and a nice break for the eyes from all the grey. I guess, in other contexts, this plant would be considered a weed.

They survived the snow and week of cold weather!! My step-mother's church has 5 beautiful magnolia trees, and it's only about a mile from where I live. Still enjoying my Olympus XZ-1.
