Seeds

About this item

Description From the series Ripples. Delicate furries, colorful sumac, and maple seeds drift and fall everywhere. Inside each seed is a baby plant, waiting to get out,waiting for water to start it growing. A lima bean, through time-lapse photography, shoots out roots, stems and leaves in the miracle of growth. The bean is not unlike a baby chick struggling to be born. Once a plant starts to grow, it tries very hard to live and succeeds in many strange and unlikely places.
