Lots of things grow in the dark.
Secrets. Lies. Desire.
New Guinea Impatiens.
They are a shade loving plant with a beguiling name. They are anything but impatient.
With care, their glossy leaves will grow thick and full. And if you are patient, their delicate flower will open to you.
Nurture them and you will be rewarded with sublime beauty.
The joy of gardening! I have yet to experience it but your poem gives me hope.
