Such delicate blooms, on such hardy little plants.
Delicate, but capable of surviving our winters and pushing their way up through straw and snow to spiders and sunshine.
Delicate, but the plants themselves are easily killed if the native prairie where they grow is disturbed.
Delicate, yes, but be careful around Prairie Crocuses... These early spring flowers attract early spring insects...
