Spring Sandwort: The Second Flower of Spring

Yesterday I posted my picture, "The First Flower of Spring," and today I'd like to show you the second flower! Like the first flower, this one grows in the moist, moss- and grass-covered moss down in our little granite valley. Not nearly as small as yesterday's 1/16" flower, these blossoms measure an enormous 1/4" across! :D :D :D I adore their pearlescent white petals and inverted bell shape. They are often found in little clusters and look like the setting for a tiny mouse wedding! :)
