Greetings to all.  This will be an eclectic week.  Our first example is a
seed pod sticking up over the cattails in a large retention pond that
serves as a green space for a commercial area:

Even though I spent a lot of time in the southern US growing up I never saw
an okra plant.  So, here is one in bloom found at a community garden:

This particular plant was found on a trail closed by our addled Mayor.  The
rains had delivered several inches of rain which prompted this plant to
produce more blossoms:

Just a bit of asymmetrical symmetry:

This is just the red seeds calling out to me as I am sure they call out to
birds and other potential vectors of spread:

All the best.
