Great picture. I'm from New Jersey originally, and I would have called that flower a Violet, not a Johnny Jump-Up.

Johnny Jump-up is a common name for Viola tricolor, basically a wild pansy. This looks like a common blue violet, although a white with blue veins morph occurs in many populations. A few zillion grow in my yard as pretty weeds.
Strikes me it doesn't take much nature to please city people,and one level, this disconnect is worrisome.
