Frowsy, acid-tongued Beatrice Hunsdorfer, supporting herself and her two daughters by taking in a decrepit old boarder, wreaks a petty vengeance on everybody about her. One daughter’s gamma ray experiment with marigolds wins a school prize — and brings on the shattering climax of the play.
The play’s timeless lesson is that something beautiful and full of promise can emerge from even the most barren soil.
