The flower and leaf are actually floating in clear water. I was hiking at McKinney Falls State Park and didn’t have my big camera with me. I used my iPhone camera, because, as they say, the best camera is the one you have with you.

I don’t know what kind of flower this is. My research skills are somewhat lacking in quite a few areas, it seems. Any ideas?
Agapanthus it is! Thanks to the identification by Gloria.
Or, purple heart plant. A few days of clouds and a little bit of rain brought out the delicate flowers.
We received five inches of rain last week. The day lilies are showing their appreciation.
I take my quilt tops to Mary Golden to be professionally quilted. She has a cinder block garden out front, which I just adore.
