My flower name is called the Showy Primrose. The scientific classification is Onagraceae. The scientific name is Oenothera Speciosa. It grows althrough Texas. The height is 8-16 inches. The four petals are pink making a glistening white toward the center. The blooming period is March-July. I think an interesting fact is that it is called Buttercup because when smelled, it leaves yellow pollen on one’s nose.
