August 22, 2012 -- fern fronds, pepper

Here's what landed in the windowsill today--an orange pepper and a plastic glass full of fern fronds. I was throwing an old, indoor, potted fern away because most of it was dead, but these few fronds still looked pretty. so I saved them and dropped them them into this glass of water where they look so pretty I now wish I'd tried to nurse the plant back to life!

The ferns and pepper look pretty with what was still in the windowsill from yesterday, too--the pokeweed berries and tupelo leaves. I'm amazed at how well the tupelo leaves are holding up.
