Larkspurs
I was paging through a field guide the other day and some dried leaves fell out. They were larkspur leaves, from species I came across last spring in California. Like so many wildflower species, there seems to be many, many more kinds of larkspur west of the Rockies than in the east. Actually, only three come to mind; two of them are spring bloomers.

2003: A Season of California Wildflowers - Yosemite, San Bernadino Mts, Kernville
While my wife and I were settling in in southern California, winter was dropping just the right amount of moisture on places that would respond with explosions of rainbows. In April, after visiting many of the same areas more than once, we traveled further north, up to the western side of Yosemite. Though we got snowed on, the lower elevations were in bloom.

2003: A Season of California Wildflowers – Mt. Dana in July
Heading to Yosemite in late July, I certainly expected the rainbow parade to be long gone. It was summer; it was dry; many of the rocky peaks were still snow-covered; all reasons to expect little more than a dandelion or two. Well, I was wrong, and for all the amazing and breathtaking wildflower sights of the previous months, I found I could still be amazed. (Yes Virginia, there are still wildflowers.)

The Wildflowers of Northern Exposure
Spring was unfolding its blossoms in the northern U.S., and we were getting to see it. But then we got to the high desert of Washington and our spirits began to lose altitude. It was hot and dusty and void of much in the way of wildflowers. Then a strange thing happened: the interstate dropped down from the desert into the Columbia River Valley.
