Just some little flowers I have come across on my walks with dogs. Names suggested by Plantnet. Barleria obtusa (Purple Gem); Barleria strigosa; Crotalaria incana (Woolly rattlepod); and Mucuna pruriens (Cowitch) . Woolly rattlepod! Love the name, I know several people it would fit 😀 #flowers #nature
