Because of health issues, I missed much of the June wildflower season. Still I was able to capture a few over the past six weeks on several short walks and have included some of those flowers here. To see many more flowers, at this point, I would have to go to higher elevations in the Sierras but I don’t think I will make it there this summer.

Incredible flowers, though I’m sorry to hear about your health issues 😦
I wonder how things might be different if we cultivated native wildflowers in our gardens with as much care as imported species less suited to our environments.
