Harebells (Campanula rotundofolia) in the grass in the park. These little blue charmers grow in so many places, prairie to mountainside.

A little botanizing with rose hips. 1. Baldhip rose hip, you can see why! 2. Peafruit rose hips, also small and closely clustered. 3. Nootka rose hips, about 3 times the size of peafruit rose. 4. Peafruit roses are still blooming!

Ookow flowers (Dichelostemma congestum) atop a long, snaky bare stem. The leaves look like strappy grass, and are hard to spot amid the grass!

I learned that the leaves wilt before the flowers open, so you probably couldn't see them anyhow.

Woolly sunflower or Oregon sunshine (Eriophyllum lanatum), either is a good name for these cheerful flowers in the grass

This tiny baldhip rose (Rosa gymnocarpa) is about as big as the tip of my thumb. This year is the first time I've spotted them. #Photography #SeattleWashington #SeattleSpring #NativePlants #NativePlantsOfThePNW #BloomScrolling #SeattleParks #RavennaPark
