Comments | The predominate flowers are currently Western saxifrage , (Saxifraga occidentalis) Pungent Desert Parsley (Lomatium grayii), Rusty Popcorn Flower (Plagiobothrys nothofulvus), and Slender Popcorn Flower (Plagiobothrys tenellus).
Also blooming: Smooth Prairie Star (Lithophragma glabrum), Gold star (Crocidium multicaule), Upland Larkspur (Delphinium nuttallianum var. nuttallianum), Naked Broomrape (Orobanche uniflora var. purpurea), Big Root (Marah oreganus), Rigid Fiddleneck (Amsinckia retrorsa), Baby Stars (Linanthus bicolor), Chickweed Monkey Flower (Mimulus alsinoides) in some moist areas, Northwest Balsamroot (Balsamorhiza deltoidea), Western Buttercup (Ranunculus occidentalis var. occidentalis), Bighead Clover (Trifolium macrocephalum), and assorted Desert Shooting Stars (Dodecatheon conjugens). At higher elevations, there were still a few Grass Widows (Olsynium douglasii) hanging on. Bicolored Cluster Lily (Triteleia grandiflora var. howellii)) should start blooming soon. |
