Field Notes

Description:

I found this teeny tiny little flower today. In the third photo, I've shown my thumb nail to show how small the flower is. Seems to be coming off a little running plant that comes up through the grass. Some were in sun, some were in shade.

I've never seen a Wahlenbergia "trumpeted" before. The ones here are very flatly radiated when open, but the stamen structure does look similar. I'll post some pics when ours come up.

Thanks! Yes, it looks like it could be, now just to narrow it down. Thanks for putting me on the right track :)

It's very pretty Jodie, but I don't know it. Maybe a Wahlenbergia of some sort?
