This is a rare alpine wildflower that we photographed at Lake Serene. Its botanical name is Romanzoffia sitchensis, but its common name is much more charming. This year everything was very early and by the end of July there were few wildflowers still blooming, but at these higher elevations where the snow had just melted we found plenty of wildflowers including this little gem.
