These small, 1/2 inch, flowers are not as showy as other wildflowers since the small flowers are overwhelmed by its foliage. The Allegheny Monkeyflower prefers rich loamy soil. I found these Monkeyflowers in the wetlands behind our barn.

Wildflower - Allegheny Monkeyflower
Another interesting wildflower with a strange name. The Allegheny Monkeyflower gets its name from looking something like a monkeys face. (Maybe some people see the resemblance but I don't)
