    I'm seeing some of these wildflowers when my head clears enough to get out there. Didn't used to suffer from allergies.

    They are all so beautiful and I am really impressed that you know the names of them all. Or was mustard a guess??? ;)

    They are very beautiful. I see for the first time this delicate Sego lily, probably specific to the place.

    Oh wow. These mountain wildflowers are spectacularly vibrant. I love them all. If you didn't post these mountain views I'd be forced to buy a horse and head west. :)

    Also I think we should all boycott anonymous people. That are basically cowards and need some serious counseling to be able to crawl out from under their rocks.

    Hmm. Looks like somebody got dumped. Wonder why he picked you to dump on.

    I don't know what's blooming in our mountains but will get another chance at the desert next week. Hope there are more flowers out than when we were there before--and hope we do get to the mountains eventually. You are tempting me...

    Mustard family yes--I think maybe Prairie Rocket? (so much kinder than "Wallflower"--calling it that just makes you want to ask it for a dance).
