took a while to id this as it's not in my books and no one lists 'peach' as a flower color.
even when i found it in the state database, peach petals aren't mentioned or the blue anthers, but the 5 petals narrowed it as well as the slender leaves. photos helped a lot as they showed the reddish stems which no source mentioned in the text.
once i id'd it, i checked my county listing of vascular plants found and this one is not there.
this is the plant i mentioned earlier as having pulled up the whole thing root and all. hopefully it will take hold in its new pot & i can get some seeds. seeeeed jag!!!
