Sierra Wildflowers

 
 
 
Over the past few years, we've taken so many photos of wildflowers that we thought we'd try to put the best ones all in one place, and we'll add their names as M gets a chance to review this. 
 
We've put them here more or less in order of color spectrum, starting with the reds and ending with the purples...and then the whites at the very end.  Hope you enjoy this! 
 
 
 
Penstamens seems to decorate many natural rock gardens in the High Sierra.
