I was up in Santa Barbara visiting my dad and I always have my eyes on the ground for plants. Why I don't know. But this little plant was popping up out of the gravel of my dad's next door neighbor and it only had like 3 leaves on it. The little thing almost died a couple of times ago but amazingly it came back. Even Antoinette had it for a while. But I need someone to tell me what it is.

Thank You,
Norma
