Aren't they the coolest? ... 7-4-12 - a photo on Flickriver

            I Love these Passion Flowers.  They are like little Aliens.  

There is only one place where I know they grow wild around here and I always say, one day I'm going to dig some up.  Except that they are right in the middle of a field of Cow Itch at the edge of a bridge over a creek on a by-pass and I would suffer too greatly to get them out of there!!!

After taking their pictures, which was quite the sight, kind of like playing "Twister",  I had to come home and throw my clothes in the washing machine and take a shower!!  After all that, I still itch!!!  I also think it's worth the effort for these crazy looking little aliens!!!  

I think they got their name from people like me who have a passion to take their photos!!!  They are just so unusal!!!  I didn't find any of their fruit this time because the flowers are covered by the cow itch!!  Plus little to no rain has kept them from really getting their brightest colors!!!

Excuse me I have to go scratch something!!!
