It grows in places that are normally hostile to natural life, roots stuck deep in the shadowy cracks, branches and shoots clinging tenaciously along precarious, often crumbling surfaces.
It shouldn't survive. Not in this forgotten, graffiti-covered, frozen alleyway. Not anywhere, frankly.
Yet it does. Thrive, even.
If this seemingly frail-looking plant can prevail despite it all, I'm thinking the rest of us can, as well.

It is considered a nasty invasive here as it hurts trees and covers the ground.
