In the picture you can see the little plants.
They are on the right hand side from the
door that enters my courtyard.
I don't know the name of them in English
but I remember what they called them in
El Salvador (chula).
The great thing about these flowers are that
the animals leave them alone, they self seed
and are without maintenance.
In the world of development a big buzzword
is sustainability. It is actually a difficult thing
to achieve. There are several variables that
factor in. One big factor is the people themselves
buying in to it.
But with the chula it is virtually automatic. It will self seed
and move around the grounds and bring some color
to the health clinic.
It is kind of a hands off project to brighten the joint
and no participation needed after the initial
planting.
Aesthetic auto sustainability ... voila.
