I am winding up my Wildflower Frenzy with this post, after finding 22 of the 25 flowers on the list. I did
intend to find them all, but such is life. I scored 40 points total, and counted my points 3 times. Sounding a bit crabby because the list got the best of me, but I did enjoy the hunt and got to know several new (to me) flowers.
Columbia Tiger Lily (
Lilium columbianum) (2 points) was found at Bridalveil State Park on May 30, 2013.

Indian Pipe - on the flower list, this picture is from last year (end of July 2012) on the trail to Wahclella Falls. This flower looks like a fungus but is a saprophytic plant (no chlorophyll, gets nutrition directly from other plants) Did not find it this year, am done looking!
