FWS Digital Media Library — The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s National Digital Library is a searchable collection of selected images, historical artifacts, audio clips, publications, and video.This plant is present in three Texas counties along the Colorado River in an ecoregion known as the Rolling Plains. It only grows in deep spits of windblown, alluvial sand. This habitat has been extensively degraded and destroyed by a number of processes and human activities, including agriculture, sand mining, development, road construction, and application of herbicides and insecticides. The flowers are also very attractive and may be picked by admirers and collectors. Extreme drought leads to reduced moisture levels which stunts the plants, sometimes preventing any above-ground growth, flowering, or fruiting
