I noticed on the road between home and Michael's school there were a lot of different wildflowers. I took the camera with me and after picking Michael up from school we took our time coming home and I stopped here and there to take photos. The roadsides weren't covered in wildflower as in years past due to the drought but there were small bunches here and there...
Scarlet Gaura, Beeblossum, and or Wild Honeysuckle, these are the different names given to this flower/plant. I've noticed today April 17th that I have some blooming at the property.
Narrowleaf Puccoon and or Fringed Puccoon
Found this down by the creek but can't find it in any of my 5 wildflower books, stumped!

It is amazing when you get out of the vehicle and walk the road the things you find!
