    Michael, I have no idea! ; I just came across it today at the Colorado River Preserve near my office....I should look it up! ; (The bluebonnets have peaked, and I'm hoping that more of the wildflowers will come out....I think they still have another week or two before they do so...I have to go back and this time bring my tripod and flash for the ants...and flowers)

    I'm not much into flower photography but I've been known to dabble.
