Thanks, Kell! Salvia was my first thought, but I wasn\'t able to find anything like the one in my shot online or in my Texas field guide. You\'re right on target again, batting 1,000! Salvia lyrata (wild sage) is a match. I don\'t have a shot with the foliage, but I recognize it in your photos. I\'m attaching a different shot of one I found in a different spot that shows blue streaks on the white inside the petal. I appreciate your help, I\'m new at the identification part.
