This is a flower that grows all over our property during spring, but I accidentally missed it last year when distracted by other flowers and then I thought I'd taken pictures already...by the time I realized that I didn't have any pictures of this one, all of them had faded away. So I made sure to get pictures this year as soon as I saw them bloom! :D From Wikipedia: Plagiobothrys tenellus is a species of flowering plant in the borage family known by the common name Slender Popcorn Flower. It is native to western North America from British Columbia to Mexico, where it is a common member of the flora in several types of habitat.

I mentioned yesterday that I'd discovered a bunch of new flowers that I'd take pictures of today, and the first one that I found was this gorgeous, extremely tiny flower which is only about 1/8" in diameter! It's called a Slender Popcornflower and even though I saw these last spring, I missed taking pictures because I was distracted by other flowers, and then I thought I'd taken pictures of them already. By the time I realized my error, they had faded away, so I was thrilled to see their happy faces smiling up at me this morning! And how wonderful that it rained during the night, just look at this droplet-festooned blossom! :D (By the way, this is the 162nd Flower of Spring & Summer, and you can read more about it on the next picture!)
