POWDERPUFF (Mimosa strigillosa)

Nothing today....so I thought I'd share one of my
childhood memories. I liked this wildflower because
when you touch its leaves they close up. I thought
that was really something! I really like the buds below.

Beautiful macro. Is that pollen on the tips?

Wow ... that's just itching to be touched, isn't it? Lovely memory ... :)

Beautiful detail, Petesie. We called these touch-me-nots and they were so much fun when we were small.

Wonderful little flower, Petesie. Gosh, in this year of padding haven't we covered a lot of territory & neither of us got any older ;>)

Yes, a touch-me-not, no bigger than a penny and you have made it look like a huge flower. Very wonderful.

We just call them "touch me nots." You have a very clear shot with good dof Petesie.
