  • This South African native succulent perennial with its very attractive bright pink and/or yellow flowers has found its way to both California and Florida thanks to the ornamental plant industry and has particularly found a foothold along Southern California highways, earning it the nickname "highway ice plant." Originally used as a soil stabilizer due to its matting, ground-cover nature it has unexpectedly spread into several sensitive ecological habitats such as coastal communities and desert dune habitats where it quickly outgrows and outcompetes threatened and endangered plants. This one was found growing in a sprawling mat across the sandy beach in Los Angeles, California next to the Del Rey Lagoon.

  • This tall, beautiful member of the mint family is found up and down the Western coast of North America from Mexico to Alaska, and is most often associated with coastal woodlands that receive a lot of rain. I almost always see them in flower with large numbers of bumblebees every summer. These were found growing alongside a cold mountain stream in the Hoh Rainforest on Washington's Olympic Peninsula on a hot summer day.

  • A native of the western side of the Cascade Mountains in the Pacific Northwest, Scouler's corydalis is a water-loving spring bloomer that is usually found on the western-sides of mountains where the running water flows down from the melting snow.

  • The Mexican hedge nettle, contrary to its name, is a native member of the mint family found all along the west coast of North America from the California-Mexico border all the way north to Alaska. This one was photographed in the Hoh Rain Forest of Washington's Olympic Peninsula on a rare sunny late-August afternoon.

  • This lemony-yellow Indian paintbrush is a member of the broomrape family of paintbrushes that are found across much of the United States at high elevations. This one was photographed deep in rural Central Wyoming.
