Miniature "Tulip"

This is from my archives. Steve and I went up to the top of the Upper Table Rock last February to take pictures of new wildflowers, This is a tiny blossom which measured only about 1/4" in diameter!! To me it looks very much like a miniature tulip but it's actually called Spring Sandwort. It is found where it's very wet, and it was growing at the edge of a vernal pool.
