We also have the goosefoot violet here and it too is yellow. I’ll have to keep an eye out for one. It is kind of funny to have a “yellow” violet.

Tim,
What a lovely violet. I was drawn to the pointed petal. You have a great wildflower photo collection. One of my favorite nature walks was a guided wildflower tour with my brother-in-law when he worked for a park in Sanford, NC. You’re guiding us on a virtual tour. Thank you! What fun!

Thanks Jill. I’m sure we’ll be seeing some from you soon. If it quits snowing long enough. We are already seeing the 90’s. Bliss says it kind of hot here.

I don’t know what specific variety of yellow violet we have here, but I’ve seen a few around. Mostly we have the deep purple, light purple and white violets (I assume they’re all just color variants of a single species). So pretty!

I don’t think I’ve seen the white ones. They sound beautiful.

Thanks Mary. All I had to do was point the camera. The flower did the rest.
