The California State Flower, the CA Poppy, is a beautiful golden orange. This shows the buds, flowers and seedpods. Judith Sparhawk
These Baby Blue Eyes are one of my favorite wildflowers. I remember then from childhood hikes--these and Shooting Stars were the flowers I always searched for. These were photographed at Descanso Gardens in the Los Angeles area, a few years ago. When I just ran across them, I decided to post them for today. 3/9/19 Judith Sparhawk
These Chocolate Lilies were photographed in a natural botanical garden in Homer, Alaska. I have always thought of these flowers as very rare (I do know one place in Southern California that they grow, but are quite rare). They are a wildflower, and I did see them a couple of places in Alaska, but even there they seem really special. Their rich brown color is quite unusual, and set them apart. 8/17/20 My website: www.sparhawkphotography.com
