"What a desolate place would be a world without a flower! It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome. Are not flowers the stars of the earth, and are not our stars the flowers of the heaven."...A.J. Balfour

About Wildflowers: Western Region US

If you live, visit, or like to travel in the western US this group will give you an idea of what beauties shine in season. This group is meant to encompass other groups' photos of wildflowers. The wildflowers pictured here are region specific and based on the National Audubon Society Field Guide to the Western Region definition: "the Western Region covers the Rocky Mountain range and all the states to the west of it." Please include the locale and environment where you captured the wildflower.

The time of the year is very useful in ID. So it would be great if the time stamp on you camera is accurate

"I love being asked to identify plants, and I don't know which gives me more pleasure: to know what they are or not to know what they are."...Elizabeth Lawrence, Through the Garden Gates, 1990
