Nice images! It would be even more helpful for identifying plants if you also include images of the leaves and stems (basically images of all parts of the plant). There are some plants that have similar looking flowers but different leaves, or sometimes something as simple as if it has a hairy stem or not.

That being said, I suspect you have some Lyre-leaved Sage (Salvia lyrata) here. https://www.wildflower.org/plants/result...
