Partridge pea, also called sensitive plant because its leaves curl up slightly when you touch it, is a hardy wildflower that is particularly good for areas that are in danger of erosion. I found it growing on the slopes in DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge. The area was submerged for an extended period during the Missouri River floods of 2010 and 2011. Trees and other plants died, but the growth is beginning anew and this hardy and pretty little plant is doing its part.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
