80. Small-flowered Fringecup (or Woodstar)

Midway through the spring symphony of colour the delicate Lithophragma parviflorum stands tall, swaying gently and popping out with the palest of pale pink petals that look as though they have been cut out of paper and glued to a central disk.   The range is southern BC to California and east to Utah and Colorado where it is found in mesic sites.
