June 8 - Rock Jasmine



Rock Jasmine (Androsace chamaejasme) are blooming like crazy in the alpine meadows.  I've never seen so many of them in one hike.  They were everywhere!  This tiny little white flower is only a couple inches tall and has a distinctive yellow center.  The flowers are tiny -- about 1/3 of an inch, and are clustered at the top of a hairy stem.  The leaves are very small and found in tight rosettes at the base.
