Subject: [NatureNS] Two mystery flowers from Brier Island

Hi, all-

We photographed some small flowering plants on Brier a day or so ago, =
and I really have no idea what they might be. I tried Newcombe, but of =
course the photos don't show some of the necessary details. Both plants =
were very small, under 6" high.=20

Would some wildflower expert on NatureNS be able to put a name to them?

The photos are here.

Thanks

Peter Payzant
