A flower by one waterfallSourced

Texas's highest waterfall
holds a flower's wild home.

Capote Falls drops up to about 53 metres in dry western Texas. Its damp bank supports Hinckley's columbine, known in the wild only around this waterfall. The falls are on private land, with access requiring permission.

One small oasis
can shelter a whole species.
