While out on a search for wildflowers in our local area I came across this interesting and beautiful plant that I had never seen before. After many hours of research, I finally came up the with an identity of Calanthus Coulteri. It is a striking plant with it’s deep burgundy buds and beautiful flowers. Not prolific, I saw about 20 plants. Take a drive and see our wildflowers in the Sierra Nevada foothills. Enjoy your day.
