Wednesday Vignettes; what's wrong with people?

With that title you may be expecting photos of people crowding together in public places, eschewing social distancing protocol. No, actually these photos were taken last July and are discouraging the trampling of plants and gardens. Sadly our fellow humans give us no shortage of opportunities to ponder the question of what's wrong with people...

These super stylish signs are at McMenamins Anderson School in Bothell, Washington.

The plant behind this sign is a Colletia, with sharp spines, so many spines!

More photos from this garden tomorrow...and there will be even more spines and spikes!

    A new meme: WWWP. I'm always amazed at what people are capable of.

      I'm picturing a Facebook group, so everyone can share their stories of WWWP, then again it could get awfully depressing.

    Indeed - it's something I wonder about every freaking day! I think our minds were aligned today. Sheesh... I have not yet visited this garden, but would love to see it some time. Will try to catch your post on it.

    I've been enamored with Colletia paradoxa for some time. It's hard to find here. The one plant I saw in a garden center cost both an arm and a leg (figuratively speaking).
