Bermuda Wood Sorrel
Last winter in southern California I marveled at all the big, bushy yellow wildflowers in bloom, all of which were <I>Encelia</I> or <I>Coreopsis</I> species. They were big, showy things, in your face and impossible to ignore. But there was another rather ubiquitous yellow wildflower in bloom, nearly a ground cover but often so widespread it was every bit as impossible to ignore as Giant Coreopsis or Bush Sunflowers. That was Bermuda Wood Sorrel.
