Thematic Tiny Flowers

**Des** · 01-12-2019, 06:01 PM - **4 Likes**

Swamp bush-pea, something of a rarity. K-S2 + DA 55-300 PLM.

There are many species of pea flowers. Not sure which one this is. K-S2 + DA 20-40 Ltd. (I love this lens for flower shots.)

Both shots from Bunyip State Park, Victoria.

chicory by the roadside and some yellow things that were behind the chicory...

dlh - The "yellow things behind the Chicory" is Coreopsis. Very common where I Live, and way too big for this, the Tiny Flowers thread, so is Chicory. Most of these probably are, please try to limit your submissions to anything smaller than a dime. Some of the very small white ones in the middle picture might be more like what this thread is about, they look a little like some very small flowers here in Texas but I can't be sure.

I haven't been around for quite a while, so I haven't been keeping up, no internet, but I may be able to check in a bit more often these days. The idea for this thread is the smallest flowers you can find.

Actually I'm surprised it's still running...3 years now? I don't know, I've slept since then...

Welcome back Pete.

Some huckleberry blossoms, about 2 to 3 millimeters across.

Well, heck, there's Pete. LOL Thought he fell off the face of the earth been so long since he's been seen around here.

I have no idea what this flower is, I just know it grows along side the Florida Tassel. Shot with Pentax 35-105 with Raynox DCR-250 on the end of it

Another unknown shot with same combo: me on my belly to get close enough to get the shot in focus.

All smaller than a dime.

Well, Pete, I try to keep em in line but sometimes they slip bigger flowers in without me seeing them. I'll try harder!

Crocus are not smaller than a dime either.

dlh, yours you posted here would fit in my other thread, the in between flowers.

Thanks, didn't know about it; since subscribed. Meanwhile (and properly chastised), here are some "tiny flowers", though they don't look like much in the middle of February, here in the Northern Hemisphere.

Having been properly chastised regarding the size of my flowers, I now submit some seriously tiny flowers. No idea what they are, they appeared in my lawn unbidden. Good thing I'm not a fan of Monsanto.

Looks quite a lot like Hairy Bitter Cress, which is very common (non-native) and an early bloomer. The leaves don't look quite right to me, but maybe it's frost damage.
