Flowering Plants along Stone Canyon Trail

Please note I'm no expert in plant identification if an error is noted please don't flame me. Email me and we'll look into it. If you observe any plants I've not included PLEASE by all means let me know and I'll update this page ASAP! ENJOY!

The thumbnail images used here are from the CalFlora database and the links take you there. I've found this to be a very useful resource.

 

Try checking the Theodore Payne Foundation wildflower hotline for more info on currently flowering plants
