Field Notes
Description:
These flowers were about 2-3 inches in diameter. The plants were growing about 4 feet tall and were about 40 yards wide, covering the bank.
Habitat:
Purple passion flower plants growing in large mass on the other side of a drainage ditch behind the TacoBell near the Bates House of Turkey in Greenville, GA. Trumpet vines were intertwined.
Notes:
I was driving south on I65 and the dogs needed a rest stop. There was a small patch of grass where I was walking them and I noticed these purple dots in the bushes. I put the dogs up and grabbed the camera. I could not get really close, because they were on the other side of a small drainage ditch and the drizzle was about to dump rain, when I spotted them.
