LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT CUP PLANT FLOWER SANDHILL CRANE (ANTIGONE CANADENSIS) (689-3733)I was trying to find a cup plant flower that was nearly perfect with little to no blemishes or flaws. With many cup plants in bloom on this late July morning at Wildflower Park in Northern Illinois, I didn't have to look for very long. (430 109)
