Fringed Wildflower? Central Ohio
 

What's this wildflower? Central Ohio, woods

http://home.att.net/~rhhardin5/w59.jpg flower

Blueish white, fringed petals, odd leaf.

It doesn't appear to be rare, just not in my Newcomb's Wildflower
Guide where I can find it.

I don't know what it is, but I've got it growing here in Middle TN, full
sun. Comes back every year.

Seems to be Miami Mist (phacelia purshii), I am informed.

There's an unfringed version understandably named ``phacelia dubia''

According to my "Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Wildflowers"
it is called 'Fringed Phacelia". It's range is said to be Virginia to
Alabama and it flowers in May & June. A very pretty little flower!!
