I took a walk this cold morning(it did stop snowing)...and found these blue violets along the creek bottom......and a few other plants....of various sizes ,colors and shapes...

not sure what this flower is?

Nice jonny, #1 and #2 are my favorites.

Nice, Jonny. I like No. 2 and the sasparilla blossoms the best.

Not sure on the unidentified flower. Do you have a shot of the full plant?

[Cooter]

Is that a pitcher plant in #3 or a jack in the pulpit, or neither?

[Steve Foss]

Cooter, that's a Jack-in-the-pulpit.

Thanks all!....Steve,I never really took a photo of the entire plant but it was growing in amongst some anemones(same size as the anemones) but doesn't appear to be an anemone....the flowers actual size is about a heavy 1/4" across..not very large at all....I'll try and get a pic of the rest of the plant(there were tons of these flowers) later this week..I also tried IDing the plant in 2 of my plant books but never found it ....(Wild Flowers of Minnesota"(Stan Tekiela) and"Northland Wildflowers" by John and Evelyn Moyle)...
