One of my best "finds". I found this growing wild in my pasture. It's about 9 inches across. I've brought it home to my cactus bed and hope to find some more some day. They are hard to find in the native grasses.

| I wish I had a pasture too. The closest I've come to finding anythig interesting around me was a tomato plant growing in a crack in the alley behind my house. Very cool WindsurfGirl. Nice picture too. MBT |
