Road salt solution in asphalt cracks drying out periodically.
Solution de sel de voirie dans des fentes d'asphalte qui dessèche périodiquement.
The circles and dashes painted on the black asphalt have always been an invitation to small children to run along the lines. Listening to bits of conversations of boys and girls on the playground made me realize that each generation of small people have a sense that they are moving through space. What a great way to encourage physical activity.
I know that the cracks in this asphalt appeared before the plants poked their green stems up to the sunlight. However, I do appreciate how small plants will appear through concrete sidewalks and asphalt. The roots of the plant will take advantage of existing microscopic cracks. New cell growth takes place at the tips of plant roots. As the root system grows and develops, these tips act as feelers, seeking out the path of least resistance for expansion.
