Now is the best time to head for the hills or canyons to see the spring blooming California natives. Part of our SFLA team met in Tilden last week to see the wildflowers and share a picnic lunch – at a safe social distance of course. We met at the parking lot near the steam trains and took a small ridge trail above the Sea View Trail.
Here are some of the amazing wildflowers we saw:
Mule’s Ears (Wyethia glabra) 
California Poppy (Eschscholzia californica) 
Silver Bush Lupine (Lupinus albifrons) 
Baby Blue Eyes (Nemophila menziesii) 
Indian Paintbrush (Castelleja sp.) 
Blue Dicks (Dichelostemma capitatum) 
California Buttercup (Ranunculus californicus) 
In Background – Fiddleneck (Amsinckia intermedia) 
Fuchsia Flowering Gooseberry (Ribes speciosum)
