White Barbara's Buttons

Marshallia caespitosa
Sunflower Family - Asteraceae

Here is another Texas Wildflower that is ending up in people's gardens.  Here is something to think about:  if a Wildflower  starts out as a cultivated plant and then begins to show up in the wild, it is called an "escaped" flower.  Now what happens and what do you call a wildflower that ends up in a garden after starting out in the wild?  Anyway, this Texas Wildflower blooms from April until June.  There is also a Purple species of this beautiful flower.
