Sorry to have misled you.  I've been misleading myself on this for years.

 

I was just looking through the Audubon Society Field Guide to Wildflowers, and realize that what I have been calling Bluets all these years are actually Speedwell, the genus name is Veronica.   Bluets are in the genus Houstonia.

 

They both have tiny blue flowers with four petals, and they both bloom this time of year.  I just lumped them altogether, calling them all Bluets.  Nope, not true.  They are two different genera from two different families.  I should have put the Seek app on them earlier.  Oh well.  Live and learn.

 

These are Houstonia, Bluets, and are scattered throughout our neighborhood.  Veronica, or Speedwell are the tiny blue flowers at the park, and the ones in the picture of the dandelion on Tuesday.

 

I love them both.  Sorry for the confusion.

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
