I doubt many passersby notice this clump of dried ornamental grass. It stands about three feet high on a sliver of dirt between the Main Street sidewalk and a parking lot beside Ciao Amici’s, a very fine Italian Restaurant. The snows from the sidewalk and parking lot have been plowed against it. It isn’t considered important, but if you really look at it up close as I’ve done in the above image, the color comes forth along with the visual mix of delicate seeds, vertical stems and swirling leaves.
