Ok, all you plant lovers! Time to play “What Is It?“
I saw this flower while walking Cody over at the high school. It was small, close to the ground, in an area full of goldenrod and other wildflowers. However, I think it might be a rogue garden flower from the property next to where we were walking.
At first I thought it might be a lady slipper, but it’s too white.
Anyone know what it is?
While you ponder, I’ll take a quick break:
‘Cause, you know, I see all the angles:
I may or may not post on Friday as I have places to be at particular times. Of course, if a perfect photo opportunity comes up, I’ll let everyone know. On account of I’m so considerate that way.
“Talk” to you again soon.

It looks like it is sweet pea. grows on a hardy vine and this is actually the wild version of it. Garden colours are usually much brighter.

Judging from the shape of the base of the flower – it’s definitely in the pea family.
(Plus, I glimpsed your answer, above – and I completely agree: Sweet Pea!)

“Pretty plant” it’s like “Birdie bird” which is what I call every bird I don’t recognize.

For me, if it’s not a robin, cardinal or blue jay, I call them all chickadees. 😳

I know nothing about plants, but it is pretty, so sweet pea immediately came to mind (and that was before I read the comments) as I remember having a small flower bed of them under the front window as a child.

I don’t know the names but I sure appreciate the beauty. I’m glad others have already come up with the tag sweat pea for this short burst of joy, CM!

Thanks, Mark. That little plant was all by itself. I’m sure it was originally part of someone’s garden.
