Gentiana acaulis. Delicately blue, this stunning flower tells me the snow is finally gone and brighter days are coming. Summer is just around the corner.

Pulsatilla alpina. Delicate and softly hairy, often covering wide patches of alpine meadow. I love how these flowers seem to dance, following the rhythm of the wind, letting their slender stems shake their heads gently.

Soldanella alpina. As the snow melts from the higher meadows, countless flowers bloom at once, yet I’m always drawn to the fragile complexity of this very common little one.
