I&#8217;ve mentioned previously that I really never intended to get into wildflower photography, however, that changed when I realized that I was missing a wonderful part of nature. \u00a0So, I brought my wildflower photography gear to my recent trip to the park and captured a few new species. The flower below,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/glossary\/havards-fiddleleaf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Havard&#8217;s fiddleleaf<\/a> (Nama havardii), was one of the flowers that were new to my collection. It also happens to be a rare plant.<\/p>\n<p>This plant is found only in Texas and only in four of its counties (Presidio, Brewster, Terrell, Val Verde). \u00a0Big Bend is the main location for this plant. The plant grows mostly along washes and gullies. I really like the features of this plant beginning with its pink\/purple coloring, the thin, dark veins that are found inside the corolla tube and the five yellow-tipped stamens that are embedded within the tube itself. All-in-all a very attractive flower.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5551\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5551\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/20151206-BBNP-Flowers-065.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5551\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"5551\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2015\/12\/fiddleleaf\/havards-fiddleleaf-big-bend-np\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/20151206-BBNP-Flowers-065.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1000,1500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;16&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
