Here are a few photos of spring from parks in Marin County, California.
Delphinium – or larkspur (note the “spur” at the top).
Gilia capitata from Azalea Hill.
Several views of Calochortus umbellatus – a small lily also known as the Oakland star tulip.
Fritillaria sp. – or Mission bells from Mt. Tamalpais
A few more lovelies
I came upon a small hill that was like a wild garden, covered with several species. Shown here are annual lupin on the left, owl’s clover (out of focus) behind and the ubiquitous California poppy on the right.

Amazing that these are all wildflowers!

I know. California is wonderful like that and I donate to Native Plant Society to try to preserve these sites. 🙂

I, too, have had good luck with finding wildflowers in Marin this spring. Your photos are wonderful, and the naming of them, much appreciated. Lovely post, Cinda.

Actually I didn’t think this year was as good – I’ve had a couple of busts. (Any recent spots to share? Maybe PM me if you prefer on “about”) Thanks!

No spot to share right now, Cinda, as those that still remain are covered by the long-growing grass. Looking forward to next year. 🙂
