All the time I’ve been here and this year (2021) is the first time I have seen this plant, a parasite. It was as Prewitt Reservoir. It has no roots of its own. The opening seed stretches to a nearby plant and attaches itself to it and then pierces it to get sustenance. In checking this plant out I found crushed Dodder Seed for sale in a bottle. It is supposed to help with male sexual problems. (The seeds haven’t formed yet, so don’t look to me for conformation.)
The parasite around a sunflower.
These are very tiny flowers. You would need a loop or magnifying glass to see them.
