Sometimes the bloom is not the only interesting part of a flower or plant. We wait for the bloom, of course, and appreciate its colour, its scent, its delicacy, and the ephemeral nature of its beauty. And then it is gone, leaving us with the green supporting cast of leaves and stems. Given the right conditions, however – a change of season, an interesting light, droplets of rain or dew – there is much beauty to be seen in the foliage that remains.
