Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to one of the very smallest, most beautiful little flowers I've ever seen! If you can believe it, this blossom measures only about 1/8" of an inch in length and just 1/16" wide!! Impossibly tiny, I was taking a picture of a tiny flower twice this size when I spotted this blossom twinkling at me. "Seriously??!! It's a FLOWER!!" I was excited to see if I could identify it, and with a bit of searching, I got lucky! YAY! I wasn't at all surprised to find out that it's actually CALLED a "Small Flower"!!! The Small-flowered Tonella is found in protected forest under trees, often Oaks (which this one was!) and is native to western North America from Vancouver Island to southern California at low to mid-elevations.
