On a damp day in March, I spotted an intriguing sight at the Raccoon Run Trail in Lick Creek Park, College Station, Texas - a vibrant yellow oxalis plant infected with a peculiar rust fungus. The sorrel rust fungus (Puccinia oxalidis) had taken over the common yellow oxalis (Oxalis stricta), transforming it into an otherworldly sight. The delicate, feathery tendrils of the fungus adorned the plant like a veil, adding a touch of mystery to the already striking yellow blooms. This unusual combination was a rare treat for the eyes, and I felt fortunate to have captured it on camera. – generated by AI
