Corydalis glauca, a delicate glaucous plant rarely met with, with delicate flesh-colored and yellow flowers, covered with a glaucous bloom, on dry, rocky hills. Perhaps it suggests gentility . . .

Blue-eyed grass now begins to give that slatyblue tint to meadows. A breezy day, a June wind showing the under sides of leaves.
