Description
This is a tiny, but lovely wildflower that blooms in our locale from mid-May through July. This plant was blooming June 21, 2012, in Green Lane, Pennsylvania, USA.
It is a low-growing plant maybe reaching a foot in height, and it loves sunshine and disturbed areas. Some people call the many types of this "Veronica".

How lovely! I like this image very much. The main blooms stand out so well with the out of focus flowers in the background.

Thank you! These are so pretty but because they're so small folks generally overlook them or pull them out as weeds.
