Notes:

This plant has 6 lobe leaves on each branch, a green pod with black seeds, and a small yellow flower. It is growing in South Carolina, as an annual. I have never seen it before, and it is unique enough to be easily identified.

    It certainly is unique and an important butterfly host plant.

    I was lucky enough (last week), to catch a cloudless sulfur in an egg-laying frenzy:

    Thank You —-Bless You
    This is it, Senna O.
    – the Google images are exact.

    There are about ten plants in a clutch and we will look for butterfly activity in the following days.
    Again Thank You
