Prairie Wilflowers

 This wildflower is a beard tongue. It grows in pastures and fields and in the right-of-way along highways in Oklahoma.Fair are the meadows,Fairer still the woodlands,Robed in the blooming garb of spring;Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer, Who makes the woeful heart to sing.(From Fairset Lord Jesus, Volkslieder, 1842) l

Prairie Roses

A dark pink rose growing in some trees at the edge of a pasture beside the highway, probably mark where an old homesite once stood.It is an extensive bush with tiny thorns and bushels of blooms.Another bush nearby in the undergrowth. Flanked by a pink variety.And the pale pink five-petaled pasture rose.
