Wildflowers 2025 - Part 4

 On Wednesday April 30, we made another trip to check that status of the wildflowers on Figueroa Mountain.


The Farewll-to-Spring wildflowers were starting to come up.





Still lots of Blue Dicks around



Grass Mountain still had a little color
 


There were many Catalina Mariposa Lilies
 


But the grasses were getting tall enough to hide lots of flowers.
 

 
Red Maids


 
Lanceleaf Liveforever  succulents starting to bloom



Crinkled Onion
 

 
Bigelow's Coreopsis

Lots of Golden Yarrow

We really liked this alignment of these trees and clouds.
 

 
Several Western Wallflowers in the usual spot

Also lots of Blue-eyed Grass
