Are you looking forward to spring wildflowers as much as I am?

White Wildflowers 🎕 Northern California

The color white represents all sorts of different virtues and attributes, along with new beginnings. So, to kick off the month of November, I'm posting a few of my favorite white wildflowers...

I think this Barestem Buckwheat (Eriogonum nudum) is too cute with its little pink doo-dads growing from its flowers. (Lily Pond Trail, Lassen VNP, Mid-August)

Oh, how I love you, happy little daisies growing along the road in Shingletown! (Mid-June)

Maybe I like this Saxifrage because of its fun name, or maybe I just like what a cool-looking flower it is. Either way, Saxifrage is on my short-list of favorites! (Mt. Harkness hiking trail, Lassen VNP, Mid-July)

And the Marsh Marigold we spotted growing along Hat Creek on the Paradise Meadow hiking trail rounds out the list of my favorite white wildflowers. (Early-July)

Why, oh why do I make myself choose favorites? I know I'm leaving some out! Oh well, which white wildflowers are your favorite--or do you love them all like I do?

Seaside Wildflowers 🎕 Fort Bragg, California

When I think of the beach, I don't tend to think of wildflowers. But, between the acres of toasty-warm sand, frothy waves and talkative seagulls, you just might find some pretty little blooms, soaking up all that seaside sunshine...
