1. ok the first one has a long stem with other stem alternating off it. they are all thin. there are more stems towards the top. the leaves are small and thin with jagged edges. the flowers are small and yellow, and they lok like mini-puff balls almost. they have dark seeds in the middle. they also have little mini-leaves leading up to them.
2.this one's stem is also long and thin wiht very thin stems coming off it. some have buds on them, while some have these hard, round things on the tip, which look like sometype of seed pod. the flowers are small and yellow with medum-sized petals. they have little stick-like things with pollen on the tips in the middle.
3. this flower is very grassy. there are a ton of LONG THIN leaves soming off the stem, and it makes it look like grass. the flowers are blue with white centers and five petalss. they grow in clumps. a lot like a wild onion
Help identifing this wildflower???
Coreopsis, maybe? Check out the picture; it sounds like it may be the first one.
Reply:It would help if I knew where you lived...I'm in Florida...and what habitat these flowers are growing in (wetland? desert? forest?)
a. No idea. Some type of hatpins or batchelors buttons?
b. How many petals? that would really help. could be a lily, aster, daisy, buttercup/ranunculous family.
c. this sounds like blue eyed grass but that has 6 petals I think. could also be forget-me-not.
Get a Peterson's field guide to where you live and start looking at the pictures.
Dallas huh, well there are many many great Texas wildflower guides out there. Definitely check them out. I agree with the coreopsis guess too. For that, be prepared to count the number of "points" on the end of each petal.
