In the greenhouse at the New York Botanical Garden, surrounded by a riot of green leaves and luscious orchids that swell and throb with color, my eye strays down to a small plant, growing in the seam between two stones in a wall. It’s not big, but it’s well established and solidly planted.
“Oh, that wall is done for,” I say to Katie.
“If we could see plants growing at the same speed we move around, we’d be terrified,” she replies.
