The weather was +7 degrees Celcius.
It was very windy (25 MPH from NW).
The location is on Mill Rd, behind the Hylan Plaza, Staten Island, NY.
The time was 04:30 pm.
The species was found on the ground, so it looks just like the "Dusty Miller". This species is probably cultivated as it was found on the side of a new built road.
