Wildflower - Downy Yellow Violet

Mixed in with the thousands of blue violets blooming in our lawn, I have found 3 Downy Yellow Violet (Viola pensylvanica) plants.



Also known as Hairy Violet, Smooth Yellow Violet, Yellow Violet, these flowers are about ¾ inch across, 5 yellow petals with several purple or brownish lines on the lower petal.
