Wildflowers on Edna Spaulding

Here are some wildflowers we found on Edna Spaulding today.


Blue dicks (dichelostemma capitatum)
All 3 colors of California Buckwheat (Erigonum fasciculatum)
Parasitic dodder abounds along the trailsides. I remember my kids trying to remove it to save a plant :)

Dodder, a.k.a. witches hair (Cuscuta)
Our Lord's Candle (hesperoyucca whipplei)
The flowers dangle like lanterns. Look at what is inside when you peel back the petals.
