California Spring Wildflowers - Part 8

On May 8th we made our sixth trip up Figueroa Mountain Road to check the progression of the wildflower bloom.

The Chinese Houses were in full bloom.



We started seeing Farewell-To-Spring wildflowers blooming.  These are an indicator that the wildflower bloom is coming to an end.



We saw a new flower blooming called the Wine Cup Clarkia.



Lots of Golden Yarrow



Blue-eyed Grass


Mariposa Lilies and Crinkled Onions



The succulents were now blooming.


The Bush Lupine along the road were in full bloom.






A variety of wildflowers making colored bands.


Indian Paintbrush


Scarlet Bugler Penstemon
