Raymone's Plant du Jour

Malvstrum aurantiacum. Hi there. Do you remember me, maybe? I was a golden-yellow flower picture a while back and much was made of my presumptive red fruit at that time. Now I am actually in fruit. I have the most beautiful fruit of all the CB Malvaceae, I think. That's them, those red carpels. There are lots of us aurantiacums at the CB because Red encourages us to go anywhere we please. We like it in full sun in transisition spots between the short grasses and the tall grasses. We also like it in the new sunny bed with Eupatorium greggii and Hedyotis nigricans. Elsewhere, I am a perennial of rare occurrence in central and south Texas and Mexico, maybe.
