Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?

A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.

Please forgive us, but Mr. Smarty Plants has been overwhelmed by a flood of mail and must take a break for awhile to catch up. We hope to be accepting new questions again soon. Thank you!

Title: Source for photo of Helianthus nuttallii
Answered by: Nan Hampton

QUESTION:

I need a photo of Helianthus nuttallii. Can you help me?

ANSWER:

Unfortunately, we don't have a photo of Helianthus nuttallii, Nuttall's Sunflower, in the Native Plants Database on the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center web page; but, you can find a photo in the USDA Plants Database that you can download. You can also find more photos on the Internet by "Googling" on 'Helianthus nuttallii' and then selecting "Images" from the menu at the top of the page.
