| Oh how cute! Hope I see some sometime! Did you take the pic very recently? I would love to know what state, if you don't mind saying. |

| Purpleinopp, the BONAP maps show that you have four Marshallia species in Alabama. If you're interested, the distributions are available by county on the linked maps. We only have one species here, and sightings are rare. I, too, would like to see that plant. |

| The picture was taken back in spring in Texas. I believe it may be Grassleaf Barbara's button. Thanks. |
