It's very cool, whatever it is.

Looks like it is probably Western Anemone, Anemone occidentalis

I simply went through every flower (from A through W) on this site: http://www.callutheran.edu/cr/index.htm until I found it. Enjoy!

The MSJORF is indeed a xylem.

BTW Ellen, I need to do a Medline search to find the (lost-linked) study of cold acclimation with skirts/kilts/shorts from a year or two ago.

kind regards,
