After looking at this photograph—but not while taking the picture—I imagined that the spiderwort (Tradescantia sp.) growing in our side yard on April 1st was a flower tower. The long green leaning "leg" on the right is a stem, while the symmetric one on the left is a leaf. Likewise for the two shorter green segments inside that triangular frame at the bottom.
