This is one of my "new favorites." I was not familiar with Bartonia verna (White Screwstem) until just a few weeks ago. It actually stumped me for a long while, but I finally placed it in the Gentian family. It is an early bloomer from the coastal plain. I think I took this picture during the third week of January. I even found one flower that had parts that were five-meric instead of the normal four.
