One plant (just) flowering at the same time as the Yellow Star-of-Bethlehem at the same location.

This is a "top" flower, open before the side ones. There are 4 petal lobes and 4 stamens, appearing to be 8 due to longitudinal division. Side flowers have 5 stamens (appearing to be 10) and 5 petal lobes.
