Finally!!

[hippywife]

Husband, 5X, went out and took these for me this morning. They are finally starting to carpet the yard.
:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

These are very, very tiny little flowers and I'm not sure what they are.







These are henbit and are all over, too.

1. I'll have to wait for my wife to identify them

She's the gardener in the family.

:hi:

[hippywife]

2. Does she know

little Oklahoma wildflowers? That would be cool. My botanist friend died a couple of years ago.

:hi:

3. I learned long ago not to underestimate her

But I'll pass on the clue that these are from Oklahoma.

4. You're awesome!

Thanx! :hug:

5. The first one may be a Claytonia Virginica (Virginia Spring Beauty)

Which, believe it or not, does grow in Oklahoma

9. I did already know that one.

The second one is close to the ones you posted but there is no yellow in the center at all. Hmmmm.

Thanx again, Xipe. :hi:

BTW, what is the correct pronunciation of your screen name?

[Xipe Totec]

10. Well, at least we have it down to the right genus, if not the exact species.

Regarding pronunciation:

The closest pronunciation I could find for Xipe Totec this time is here.

And here are the pronunciation rules:

I tend to disagree with the rule for X, which they pronounce sh, but I pronounce kh.

11. Thanx for everything.

I appreciate the time you put into helping me identify these. :hi:
