Okay, ladies, it's time to blow the whistle and call in the guys wearing white coats. I have officially lost it! After reading the last two posts, I ran out to the vegetable garden where I grow cilantro. It has bolted with the warm weather, but I'm leaving it as many tiny bugs like the flowers. I looked at one of them closely, but it didn't have that pink stuff going on in the middle. (Of course, my eyes aren't that great anymore). So then I walked to the front pasture where I found the mystery plant, dug down through the bluebonnets until I discovered a "true" leaf. I crushed it - and eureka! It's cilantro!!!!! *Blush*
So two questions:
1. Why does the flower look so much different? (soil?)
2. How in the world did it get all the way out to the front pasture???
And here I thought I had an exotic, one-of-a-kind wildflower.
I feel like such an idiot.
