Delicate Star Chickweed Wildflower At Fort Hill On Cape Cod

I was taking  a hike at Fort Hill the other day and came across this pretty little white wildflower. I had never seen a Star Chickweed wildflower before. It is so delicate with its tiny pistil and colorful stamens. This perennial wildflower is about 6-12″ tall and unbranched.

So pretty, don’t you think? Have you ever seen a Star Chickweed wildflower?
