Found these growing wild on my 10 acres in Tulsa County. They are also called Maypops. Have made amazing jelly with the fruit.

Found these beauties on our wooded property in Eastern Norman! The smell is so fragrant!

I love the passion flower,
I have been drinking the dried flowers
in tea form for years now.
Great for relaxing cramps and back spasms
and as a mild sleep aid.

We found these in the back area of our small acreage between Foyil and Chelsea. They are both white and purple and absolutely gorgeous!

Just found these growing in our pasture where an old tree had fallen down. I had never seen a flower like this before. Very unique. Haileyville, Oklahoma

My granddaughter and I found this flower and were amazed at its beauty. We showed it to all the neighbors and nobody new what it was. I log on to this site and found it right away. We live west of Sand Springs, OK in the country near fields and a creek. The road this year is full of the plants but only a few are flowering, so far. We will keep our eye out for them on our walks.

We have these growing wild in our yard. Today was the first time I have noticed it. I think they are very pretty.
