for the song: "wildflowers don't care where they grow".
It's long been a favourite and, for some reason, always springs to mind when I go walking on the wild side in Shimla - in this case, somewhere in the cedar woods around Koti!

So here are three types of wild flowers, a violet, a yellow and a peach-y-pink, clicked in May 2008, respectfully dedicated to Dolly.
Butterfly bush
Herpetospermum
Sheep sorrelThe hills were alive with wildflowers
And I was as wild, even wilder than they
For at least I could run, they just died in the sun
And I refused to just wither in place
Just a wild mountain rose, needing freedom to grow
So I ran fearing not where I'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow
And the flowers I knew in the fields where I grew
Were content to be lost in the crowd
They were common and close
I had no room for growth
I wanted so much to branch out
I uprooted myself from home ground and left
Took my dreams and I took to the road
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow.
I grew up fast and wild and I never felt right
In a garden so different from me
I just never belonged, I just longed to be gone
So the garden, one day, set me free
Hitched a ride with the wind and since he was my friend
I just let him decide where we'd go
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow.
When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow.
So I ran fearing not where I'd go

Wildflowers don't care where they grow.

When a flower grows wild, it can always survive
Wildflowers don't care where they grow.
