Question
This grew in my dry cattle pasture along with brake ferns, hay scented ferns and northern lady ferns along with various goldenrods. It is only about 6 inches tall, the flowers are no more than 3/4 inch and the leaves are opposite and very narrow. Possibly a type of beardtongue or skullcap ?
Answer
Dear fogeorge, it appears to be a species of Agalinis (also known by the common name agalinis). These are hemiparasites in the Orobanchaceae. I don't know what part of the world this image was taken in, so I would not be able to assist you further than the genus.
