Strange and Beautiful

We discovered a new wildflower a few days ago. Check out this Catclaw Sensitive Briar:



Here's a closer look at the flowers:


They are really cool. We also have prairie larkspur blooming all over. Kansas Dad is going to mow soon because the grass near the house is about knee-deep, but we've decided to leave open the space in front of the driveway so we can continue to enjoy all the wildflowers (and frankly, it would take a month to mow it all with the push mower he's going to borrow).
