They were all going off today

I spoke with the owner of this truck, he was very proud of his epivehicular fern colony. Apparently at one time it had been larger but someone stole a portion of the plant.

Very abundant on NW facing hillside with intermixed mahonia and thick Quercus gambelii leaf litter. Soil is filled with small rocks which are mostly limestone or dolomite.

Coast Fawn Lily - Erythronium revolutum

Found among curly lilies

The stigma looks like purpurascens? Very far south from those though. Possibly especially small due to coldish weather. 100 ft from melting piles of snow

Quercus berberidifolia x garryana

Unusual population, with most, but not all plants having purple anthers.

330 nm uv Fluorescence.
