This 30 m wall on a side of an elderly house Anneta painted a fireweed, a very common plant found around Europe. It's known to be one of the pioneeringplants as it often is the first one to bloom in open areas and fields after forestfires, hence its name. Fireweed felt very fitting on this tall narrow wall as it blooms gradually and leaves something to wait for.

"I was very wary of painting something too swiss after looking into the local flora for days. I didn't want to be another outsider offering the residents a typical edelweiss to look at. Based on the feedback it seems the residents have found this fireweed special and something they will happily live with. ": shares Anneta
