Hookedspur Violet, Early Blue Violet ~ Viola adunca

Goosefoot Violet ~ Viola purpurea

Small White Violet ~ Viola macloskeyi
Today was the first time that I’ve found these three species in one day, and all were within a half mile besides. It was a surprise also because they are growing within the periphery of the huge forest fire that occurred here last year. (Now if I can figure out why three different colored flowers are all called “violets”.)
