Adela is an overlarge freely-growing street sign houseplant. It tempts
socially weaker citizens towards it in a way similar to plants tempting
insects with sweet pollen.
The street offers many different colorful betrayals and lies. These plastic
plants lure people from afar, but upon their arrival they are met
with poverty and warnings of treachery and destruction, comprised
mainly of the blinking signs of dirty all-night bars, casinos, nightclubs,
and even homeless people and pigeons.
