Nature fights back, abetted by sloppy weed control

I am an unabashed nature lover. I particularly enjoy seeing it thrive it challenging circumstances. I enjoy our native flora and fauna, and see exoticness is what others would class as mundane. Therefore, nature being allowed to encroach into urban life should fill me with joy.

To be honest, in some places, such as waste grounds or derelict sites, I do get real joy from seeing nature beautify what would otherwise remain ugly. However, I am not sure whether our streetscene benefits from the intrusion of large weeds.

See some greenery in these place reminds me that we could make the borough greener. Sometimes, though, the size and spread of weeds only makes the place look shoddy and unlooked after.
