I have to admire the survival skills of this Prickly Pear. How did it get there. How is it still alive ?

From the perspective of plants we are all rich and in the long run they will eat us all. @plants

This little plant, identified as Equisetum arvense by a colleague, appears to have grown right through one of the metal posts of the bridge of Amsterdam University College (#AUC #UvA #VU).

I think it should be the mascotte of all students at Science Park:

"Those who persevere against all odds find the light at the end of the tunnel."

The plant is frost-hardy, but all parts of the plant above ground die in winter.

Singapore Cloud Forest. Not sure what plant it is, but I guess from the Araliaceae.

I think the plant is from the Zingiberales, but I don't dare to identify it more than that.

Penang, Malaysia.

It has been driving my allergies nuts since April 30th.
