Flower in the crannied wall

Unlike Alfred Lord Tennyson, I will not be pulling out this little flower in the crannied wall.




With perseverance, this "Dakota Gold" helenium self-sowed from last year's big pot of coleus and red fountain grass. It is flourishing, even at the end of November, in its little cranny between the bricks and mortar of the front steps. I just hope it seeds again! Now, how to get that re-pointing done?
