Flowers I found in Oklahoma today!

I’m from Colorado and this is my first time visiting family in Oklahoma. I found these in my family’s yard. It’s so cool to identify flowers that are similar to ones in Colorado, and find new ones!

Picture 1: Passion Maypop flower, passiflora incarnata. I’ve only ever seen one in my life in Colorado and I’ve already seen two here!

Picture 2: ((EDIT) identification genus change)**
The Narrow-leaved Obedient Plant , Physostegia augustifoila. It reminded me of the invasive Snapdragon, but I don’t think I’ve seen this one before.

Picture 3: Poppy Mallow, Callirhoe. I thought it was winecup, but not down here! I haven’t seen this type of poppy before (:

Picture 4: Japanese Honeysuckle, Lonicera japonica. I’ve seen honeysuckle, but not this kind.

Picture 5 & 6: Trumpet creeper, Campsis radicans, new to me! How beautiful!

Picture 7: Pale Meadow Beauty, Rhexia mariana. I thought it looked similar to wild geranium in the Rocky Mountains.

Picture 8: Carolina larkspur, Delphinium carolinianum. I love Foothills Larkspur (Delphinium geyeri) and it’s so cool to see a different genus of it!

During the City Council's upcoming work session on Tuesday May 12th at 6 P.M., Fort Collins Police Services will be presenting their options listed in their memo to City Council. This session will not have public comment, but we can still make a statement that we don't approve 3 of the 4 options they will be presenting.

FCPS Options:

Option 1: Keep Flock

Option 2: Keep Flock

Option 3: Keep Flock or get another equally bad or worse vendor

Option 4: Remove all ALPRs.

If you can attend in person, We will be handing out stickers with the words "OPTION 4" to those who want to show City Council and FCPS we don't want surveillance in FoCo! Address is 300 Laporte Ave! The more people show up to watch with our option 4 stickers on, the harder it will be to ignore us!
