What's is that Wildflower that has taken up residence in my Tucson Backyard?
A couple of months ago I noticed a volunteer plant growing in my backyard garden here in Tucson. I took a few photos of it clearly showing the leaves and the flower; shared it with my Master Gardener friends and a local landscaper but no one seemed to recognize it. Finally, Jim, in his persistence found it online. It turns out some bird or a gust of wind brought an Arizona native wildflower, an Indian Mallow Plant to our garden. I must remember to save the seeds from this one.
