As a child I would walk outside, visit parks and hike through the NW trails.
Every time I came upon a seed, leaf, pod, or stick I liked the look of I would
pick it up and take it with me. To this day I have a few cherished items I have
saved. Recently I haven't found the time to go out and experience this the same
way I did as a kid. The plant represents the days I went into the garden and
planted fruits and flowers with my mom. So, to me, these pieces represent
my nostalgia.
