But its requirements are more complex. It only thrives on nutrient-poor soils. Due to the influence of invasive species and the growing nitrogen content in our soils, such poor sites are increasingly disappearing\u2014and with them, the plants that have adapted to them. The Balkan geranium makes it clear that no species can endure the changes caused by humans indefinitely. And it reminds us that even resilience has its limits.     <\/p>\n<p><em>Watercolour on paper, 15 x 21 cm<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Balkan Geranium is considered a hardy plant: it tolerates drought and therefore \u2013 in view of climate change and increasingly hot summers \u2013 seems ideal for a flowering landscape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1702,"menu_order":6,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[150],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[],"class_list":["post-2193","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-floral"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/2193","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/avada_portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2193"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/2193\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2462,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/2193\/revisions\/2462"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1702"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2193"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=2193"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_skills","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_skills?post=2193"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/silhouettenammeer.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tags?post=2193"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
