Geranium texanum
Small patch in shady area in disturbed ground behind the nearby bathroom. Most plants not blooming yet. Note the anthers are pinkish with purple lines, which is how they often look when the flower has opened but the anthers have not. A photo from about 8 hours later shows the opened anthers appearing more purplish and the petals already falling off.
