Wow, I love the 3 flowers you just posted!

While this flower resembles a small tulip, I think it is a tulipa humilis. It provides a nice pop of pink!

I love the delicate blue lines on this tiny flower.

Not quite open yet but it is already wearing shades of blue and purple. I believe this is a grape hyacinth.

A single azalea bush was in bloom today in Maudslay State Park. The property is covered with both azalea and rhododendron so there will be more to come!

We spent yesterday hiking in Kolob Canyon, Utah. Dry there, but still some pretty flower-like things there.

I was walking on a local trail this afternoon when a bit of purple caught my eye. I looked down to find patches of tiny violets in full bloom.

In another spot I found periwinkle. It was a good day for finding purple!

Once it clears up on Sunday I'm hoping to be able to get a few more.

These things were covered with bumble bees today.
