I wanted to start my first solo collection in the Old Sabine Bottom Wildlife Management Area (OSBWMA) by re-finding this cool little flower living in the wilds of that area. I met this flower by way of introduction by Ms Sonnia Hill of the Botanical Research Institute of Texas (B.R.I.T) at a training session hosted by the East Texas Chapter of Master Naturalists (ETCMN) in a Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Facility (TPWD). I know, to many acronyms, but I'm grateful to all those organizations for the training the dispense so freely. It will forever be the first flower listed in my OSBWMA collection.
