The drought and grasshopper pretty much decimated my garden, but this relative of the Texas Wild Olive has just begun to bloom. The flowers are slightly smaller that the white Cordia boissieri, but are a bright clear lemon yellow. It's Cordia lutea and much more frost sensitive than the native white. I have to haul the pot into the greenhouse for protection.
