    Hello forum!

    I have been trying to grow some flowers in my front yard. It is a shaded area and I have not had much luck in past years, but this spring I got a few seedlings. Several poppies of one type or another. Some tiny white flowers, and a few other intersting flowers as well.
    This one though struck me.
    It is the only of it's type.
    I took the macro out to get some shots.
    Can someone ID it for me, I want more!!!!

    Thanks!

    I hope I can figure out posting the image, we shall see....

    Nice photo. This is scarlet flax, Linum grandiflorum.

    Thank you for the I.D. !

    I see it likes full sun. I will have to reseed in a more open area.
