Flower Shoot









These exotic looking flowers are growing wild here in my hot and humid Arkansas front yard. They are huge and quite amazing; and they open in the morning and close up by noon.

Click on the photos to see 800x600 size. You'll see a grasshopper!

  4. Mallow? I've never heard of it.

    I thought the grasshopper was cool too. I had no idea it was there when I shot the photo.
