Lynne, sorry to disagree but I think the petals on this are more pointed than those of a Mecanopsis. It looks more like the flower of a campanula to me, but Janet says the leaves are prickly.
Do the leaves we can see in the foreground belong to this plant, Janet, or are they primula leaves ?

Awwww, what a shame, I thought the mystery had been solved, Oh well, lol.

It seems this pretty blue flower is awaiting positive identification.
Anyone want to have a try?
Janette has photographed it well.
