Yes it is purty and I'm guessing that is an 'Arkansas Native' in botanical circles.

Patrice, I Love this!!! I never mow outside my back fence until the violets stop blooming so my grass is usually about 18 - 24 inches tall. That whole area is mostly violets. We tend not to let the cat out there b/c he would disappear into the tall native grasses.

Beautiful. Once heard that flowers are just weeds that we cultivate.

Well, now just what are those yellow flowers? They're not dandelions, and look too short for wild mustard...
