The above orange flower is Aeschynomene<\/strong><\/a> genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae<\/a> (Legumes\/Pea\/Bean). They are known commonly as Jointvetches<\/strong>. These legumes are most common in warm regions and many species are aquatic.\u00a0 These were growing wild in the Dinosaur Valley Park, Glen Rose- Texas. There are over 100 species found of the Aeschynomene. I could not specify the species of flower as I could not locate this particular color anywhere, most of what I found was yellow or in the purple shades.
