Nature's Resilience - Hart's-tongue Fern Breathes Life into Cracked Tombstone
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In the enchanting village churchyard of St. Mary's Church, Mendlesham, Suffolk, England, an extraordinary sight unfolds. Amidst the solemnity of tombstones and ancient graves, a vibrant display of life emerges from a weathered crack in one such memorial. Captured by FLPA photographer Marcus Webb, this print showcases the remarkable resilience of nature. The delicate fronds of the Hart's-tongue Fern (Phyllitis scolopendrium) gracefully sprout from within the crevice as if breathing new life into forgotten history. As summer blankets East Anglia with warmth and vitality, these ferns bring a touch of whimsy to an otherwise somber scene. Their emerald green hue contrasts beautifully against the gray stone backdrop—a testament to nature's ability to find beauty even in unexpected places. This snapshot transports us to an idyllic British countryside where centuries-old churches stand as guardians over their resting grounds. It reminds us that life persists amidst decay and that every crack holds potential for growth and renewal. So let this image be a gentle reminder that even in our own lives when faced with challenges or cracks along our path—like these resilient ferns—we too can find strength and bloom against all odds.
