  • Question

    Hello, I found this flower by my house in Bulverde, Texas, at an approximate elevation of 1170, the habitat is difficult to say for sure but it probably be closest to woodland. It's full in the day, and fold into itself at night. Also it's grows only one, and has a long thin leave, that looks similar to grass, towards the bottom of it's stem. It stands approximately at 1 foot. P.S I'm sorry if I sent the same picture twice, my computer was acting up.

    Answer

    Dear anw120, I'm sorry I won't be able to help you. Texas is a long way out of my region of expertise. Sometimes I can help, but in this case I would need more images, including a side view of the flower and images of the leaves. If you wish to take the time to send additional images, I may be able to help. You can post them here or send them to ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org. Best wishes.
