Prairie Verbena and Miscellaneous Cactus Blooms

Glandularia bipinnatifida
Glandularia bipinnatifida, Purple Prairie Verbena, a great attractor of butterflies, abundant one year and almost completely missing the next.  This year the tiny seeds must have had the specific conditions of sunlight, moisture, and heat to assert their dominance. 


Claret cup flower
Claret cup cactus, seems that digital cameras struggle with the representation of red, this shot comes pretty close to the true color.
