    This is a delicate thing with tiny pink flowers. I uncovered it when I trimmed away some dead bushes. The photo may have come out better if I had cleared the leaves first.

    It is serving no purpose there. Could it be used elsewhere?

    I can't see the tiny pink flowers. Have you got a better picture?

      I will try to get a better picture tomorrow. I might have moved it out of the way by then. It's very small and low to the ground. It's hard to find a camera without anything in the background. There are lots of tiny little pink dots at the end of all the stems.

        Whatever it is, its gone now. It had no root so it must have blown in from somewhere else.
