they add color to the concrete monotones and common ger district settings of UB, and to the predictable curves of the steppes in the countryside. at least, some time in the summer and autumn i got to see flowers intentionally planted and others just prompted by the late rainshowers for the year.
in the philippines, this is commonly known as vietnam rose, and we only got purple and white varieties of this kind. but in the ger districts of UB i was able to see a wider range of colors.
a zinnia
i have seen these flowers growing near a residential building. wild and floriferous.
the flowers of the steppes...
edelweiss
these flowers and plants just thrive in patches along the troughs and crests of the mongolian terrain. in one of my walks, i even saw some herbs and chives - their scent filling the air.
