Found these growing by the side of one of the warehouses today... Winecups (Callirhoe digitata) are a wildflower that grows throughout most of Texas... One of my favorites. We're pushing the end of the season, so it was kind of a surprise to see them growing beside one of the warehouses I delivered to today... fortunately I had a few minutes extra to take a quick pic. Nothing much else today... just another work day for me. Haven't been having many slow days lately, a bunch of the drivers have quit, due to gas prices, which means I'm working a whole lot... since I get paid by delivery, that's good.
Oh, these winecups are great! I have not seen anything like it here. Very delicate...nice leaves too!!! I want to drink wine out of them! LOL.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great shot of a flower I'm not familiar with. Thanks for sharing it. And good to hear the gas prices aren't hurting you. I can't imagine how independent truckers are making their way.
