plaited grass

You know how, when you used to take your hair down after it had been in braids, it maintained the kinks put in your hair by the plaiting? When these grass flowers were still tight and spear-shaped, they looked like braids and now that the "strands" are loose, they're still holding that kinked look. Gorgeous. The only way I could find to make them show up on the windowsill was to put a black tray behind them.
