This wildflower with glossy leaves a few inches long was found in the Central Texas Hill Country (back in February). (I uprooted it only because the area was going to be scraped clear, anyways.) What is it?

I still don't get the Blue Cohosh connection, based on the photos I looked at last night. The dangly yellow flowers bear no resemblance to the flower I photographed. But I appreciate being reminded of Name That Plant. I came to GardenWeb as an avid gardener quite a few years ago, but my gardening days are behind me, along with the many wonderful forums I frequented before. Yes, my daughter-in-law was with my grandson when he picked the flowers. I'll pass along the information about this plant. From Deadly Nightshade to rhubarb leaves, there's lots of things around here that should never go in mouths. But obviously, even after 40+ years here, I still don't know all of them. Thanks for your help, everyone!

Since I don't know CA species, I can't tell you which, but it's an evening primrose, Oenethera unless the botanists have reclassified everything while I wasn't looking.

I don't know but you need to be looking in the Boraginaceae.
