The symmetry repeats in fractal ghost images of the elements of this Goat's Beard seed globe.
Even the partial globe of this prairie wildflower has that same strange symmetry, the individual cups of its seed parachutes far more visible on this than on the full, packed seed head, their whirling parachutes pulling me into the seed centres, their open spun silk cups repeating...
To me, Goat's Beard is far more beautiful as a huge white globe than when in yellow flower.
