Wildflowers today were off the hook. Mostly Balsamorhiza sagittata (arrowhead balsamroot) but also loads of lupines and Lomatiums (at least three different species) — and poison oak.

4/4 seems I'm at part 4 of what was supposed to be 2 parts..lol This plant (if name is right now!) is an Asian cousin to mostly (entirely?) American Tradescantias, does not have the trailing stems many of those do, rather seems to mostly cluster rosettes/short stems that rise from the soil. The species form, all green with narrower leaves, is grassier looking and has common names like Beijing Grass or Angel Grass, + has medicinal uses. edits for number + typos
