There are two pictures in notes above! Would you believe me if I told you that this bud is the same kind of flower as I shared yesterday for my 365 image?! Such amazing flowers! Rough Eyelash blossoms are red, pink or white on the back of the flower and white on the front, so the buds can be found in many different shades. I thought it would be fun to get bud pictures in several colors to share because they are so pretty!

Rough Eyelash Bud in Pink

The petals look a little bit like fingers, don't they?! :D From Wiki: This is an unassuming small annual plant native to the northwestern United States. It raises slender, fuzzy stems, atop which bloom a daisylike flower head. Its ray florets are white with purple markings and the center of the flower is packed with white disc florets with purple anthers. The fruit is a dark achene which often bears a pappus of a few stiff, light colored bristles. The rough eyelash grows in forests at some elevation. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blepharipappus

I never realized how cool flowers can look in bud form until I began taking pictures of them. Now I consider buds as pretty as the open flowers, and they are often fascinating in form, like these flowers with their "opening finger" appearance! :)
