Lagopsis marrubiastrum in bloom... Yep, those itsy-bitsy yellow specks in the fur are the flowers. The whole thing is about 3 inches tall. As much as I enjoy unusual plants, even I am starting to wonder about this one. Big Grin

Dracocephalum aucheri, with interesting furriness starting on the stems, from Beaver Creek this spring - CORRECTION: This plant turned out to be a mislabelled Lagopsis marrubiastrum... so I have yet another one;

Hmm, not a very floriferous entry this time - will have to do better next time!
