Blue Eyed Grass

This is a wild flower sometimes found in the lawn. It likes Ed's nice garden soil and is doing well. Not an easy get for the photographer, this plant keeps its flowers closed tight in the morning and closes them up early in the evening. I had to make several tries to get this picture. I was always too early or too late in the day. These little blue beauties have been blooming for some time. The little green balls are seed pods. It has spread into a lovely patch. Since I never did find my perennial flax this year, the blue eyed grass will do just fine.
