+JoPo2010 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Does anyone know the name of this gorgeous little wildflower? It was seen at Westwood Lake, in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island. Quote
+Landsharkz Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Does anyone know the name of this gorgeous little wildflower? It was seen at Westwood Lake, in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island. Pretty! I have a Wildflowers of BC book I can look it up in later if nobody else can identify it before then. What sort of environment was it in? Lakeside (marshy) or meadow or rocky? Quote
+dudleyseekers Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Is it currently blooming and what size are the blooms? Quote
+JoPo2010 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Posted July 22, 2012 The photo was taken at the end of August, last year. They were tiny blooms, maybe 1.5-2 cm across. They were growing in a rocky meadow--poor soil, open area. Does anyone know the name of this gorgeous little wildflower? It was seen at Westwood Lake, in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island. Pretty!

+CanadianRockies Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) I'm not a wildflower expert, but it appears to be a Pearly Everlasting (Anapahlis margaritacea). Edited July 23, 2012 by CanadianRockies Quote
+JoPo2010 Posted July 23, 2012 Author Posted July 23, 2012 Pearly Everlasting....That's it! Thank you, CanadianRockies! Quote
