June 25, 2012 This beautiful, large yellow flower grows on a shrub. We see these shrubs along the bike trail in Mountain View. I was happy to finally find it in a wildflower book.
July 2, 2012 The huge pink and cream-colored seedpods made this wildflower fairly easy to identify. I found it blooming along the trail at the Bristlecone Pine forest.
July 2, 2012 This little sunflower grows in high elevations. Like many plants that live in harsh conditions (cold and windy in winter, hot and dry in summer), it has silvery hairs on the leaves. I saw this plant at the Bristlecone Pine forest.
