A close-up view of the Narrow-leaved Mountain-mint flower shows a lot more color and detail. I found this member of the mint family (Lamiaceae) in an overgrown field behind our house.

Wildflower - Mountain Mint
The problem with some wildflowers are the size of their flowers, they're too small. The flowers of Narrow-leaved Mountain-mint (Pycnanthemum tenuifolium) bloom in clusters of multiple flowers that are 1/4 of an inch across. From a distance, this plant looks like several other white flowers that bloom this time of year.
