We found a new flower today at the big bend on the Missouri River. It has a sweet smell and I was surprised by its design. The stem of the flower is about 20 inches. It has narrow peddles which meet at the canter, a yellow ball of pollen. I counted around 30 peddles. The peddles and stem have small hairs that feel rough at the touch.

Great entry! I think maybe it would be better if you edited it, and checked the spelling.
