A Glowing Starflower

This is another favorite woodland flower of mine. They are very small but always seem to stand out on the forest floor making their common name very appropriate for this species.

 

There is a tiny Springtail at the base of the leaf in the foreground. I put a note on the tiny speck. I thought my friend Eddie the Bugman would enjoy that little fellow. ;^)

 

I hope everyone enjoys this image! :^)

 

The scientific name for this species is: Trientalis borealis.
