| Comments | Early flowers in profusion. Prairie Stars (Lithophragma bulbifera and parviflora), Yellow Bells (Fritallaria pudica), Desert Parsley (Lomatium grayii?), Large-fruited Biscuitroot (Lomatium macrocarpum). Looks like a better flower season this year. Keep the moisture coming! The Bitterroot and Alliums should be great in a couple of weeks. |
