We have a number of yellow Sisyrinchium pictured on the wiki, but 
they are not native to Texas. This genus has been the subject of much 
taxonomic confusion and revision. It is the largest genus in the Iris 
family in the "New World" according to Manning and Goldblatt, The 
Iris Family. In this book they state conservatively there are 140 
species. The Flora of North America recognizes 37 species. There is a key here:
