Thanks, Lizzie. This truly is a wild flower that grows all over the open spaces in NM. This particular plant "self-seeded" itself on the south side of my house and I made sure to water it regularly, so it just kept growing and blooming.

Isn't nature wonderful. Love this.

Thanks, Chuck. This plant actually grows wild (and VERY tall) all around parts of NM. When one self-seeded in my yard, I watered and nurtured it in the hopes it will come back year after year.
