I like 'Brown Lasso' for the first half-day each bloom opened. Then
it faded badly in the sun, the falls bleaching out almost white.

"I ordinarily plod along a sort of whitewashed prison entry, subject
to some indifferent or even grovelling mood. I do not distinctly
realize my destiny. I have turned down my light to the merest
glimmer and am doing some task which I have set myself. I take
incredibly narrow views, live on the limits, and have no recollection
of absolute truth. Mushroom institutions hedge me in. But suddenly,
in some fortunate moment the voice of eternal wisdom reaches me, even
in the strain of the sparrow, and liberates me, whets and clarifies
my senses, makes me a competent witness."
--Henry David Thoreau, Journals, March 28, 1857.
