Oxalis Oregana

Collected: Cougar Mountain Redtown Meadow 13/4/12
Sample 15
These little guys are a delectable treat, though don't eat more then 10 or your stomache may turn sour. Sour is exactly the word too, for they have a slightly astringent taste (similar to a purple unripe blueberry). They pop up just a few inches above the ground and their tiny white or pinkish flowers can be seen overhead.
