    Hello,
    could you help me to identify this nicely blooming tiny plant. I took the photograph yesterday (June) on the edge of woodlands in London area.
    Thank you,

    Thank you for your help. It looks like VERONICA CHAMAEDRYS indeed.

    I would not like to say which Veronica it is, especially as there are no leaves in your pic.
    There are a few that look almost identical!
    This link gives a few tips on id for Veronica chamaedrys

    Its identity likely also depends on the identity of the London in question . . . London UK, or London Ontario?

    The location is London UK. I'll get better next time and take a photograph not only of the flowers but also leaves.
    Thank you for suggestions
