Here on the Central Coast we are a bit behind you in the Santa Clara Valley - The matilija poppy (not locally native - it's a garden plant for us) is going strong. BTW I see Oenothera elata around the road edges as I drive on the back roads - but I don't know if it's Oenothera elata hookeri - might be good to learn how to tell the difference!Country Mousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294472166693008328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497277770771473008.post-30930098465955038972012-07-12T15:44:34.381-07:002012-07-12T15:44:34.381-07:00Nice visit.

I really should go back again soon.ryanhttp://drystonegarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497277770771473008.post-87079740005403191112012-07-12T13:05:02.264-07:002012-07-12T13:05:02.264-07:00I'm embarrassed to say I've never been to ...I'm embarrassed to say I've never been to the SF Botanical Garden. Silly really, as I just spent an entire week staying in the City. Now I wish I'd gone while I was there. I'm really impressed how much is in bloom, especially as my own native plants are starting to wind down for the season.Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.com
