This photo shows the resilience of flowers. Give them a crack with a minuscule amount of soil, and here they come, right back again. This was taken last May at the Giant's Causeway on Northern Ireland's Antrim Coast.

Thanks. That is interesting. So it has all those flat sides on it and goes deep? I like geology but don't know much about it.
I think those are moss roses growing there - a favorite of mine.

Do a Google search for Giants Causeway Ireland. It explains the way they were formed and gives many more pictures.
