Glacier lily This flower laughs at extreme weather. The snow has barely melted and it's pushing up through the grass and between the rocks, showing off its yellow flowers and waxy leaves. Not afraid of the biting winds and cold nights. This flower is strengthened by adversity and cold... like its neighbor, the glacier. If I were going to be a flower, I'd be one that kicks ass, like the glacier lily.
