Sagae Bud (look at the weird little spider in the first flower -- never saw one of those before)

I like the buds! It's funny, I was just recently out in the garden looking for nice Hosta flowers to photograph, and I was noticing how much I like the buds! If it wasn't raining (again!) I would go take some photos.
