Prunus volunteer. Growing on a bench in the mountains outside Lillooet. Chances are this started as a cherry pit dropped as garbage by a visitor, human or bird.
In the foreground, the branches of the tree with new green/red foliage, and big clusters of white flowers. In the background, blurry, a wooded slope, and in the distance, a snowy peak. Blue sky with puffy clouds.
Cerastium arvense, field chickweed. Against a blurry dark background, a single small white flower, actual size less than 1 cm, and several buds. The petals are shaped like valentine hearts and are white with distinct greygreen stripes leading into the center, where there are pale yellow stamens and pistils.
Collinsia parviflora, small flowereed collinsia. Truly tiny flowers, about 2 mm long, with a couple of buds and seed pods on a stem with linear/ovate leaves. The flowers are tubes with "kissing lips" petals at the distal end. The lower petals are intense cobalt or cerulean blue while the upper ones are pale lavender. Blurry BG.
Cornus nuttallii, Pacific Dogwood tree. The actual flowers are a semi-globular cluster of small buds in the centre of the inflorescence, none of which have opened on this one. Surrounding it are uch larger white petals / sepals, six in this case but commonly also four. Blurry BG.
