A recently transplanted crop of cilantro, lettuce, or radishes extends into the background where plastic and equipment in a ‘work area’ of the chinampa are visible. In the foreground (out of focus) are willow branches that have been embedded in the soil at the edge of the field. Most of these will sprout roots and grow to a height of 2-3 meters within a few years. In the background you can see examples of willow trees that have not been pruned recently and no longer retain their characteristic narrow shape.
