A #CaliforniaNative flower. #Bloomscrolling

Creek trails buzzing with life. I’ve been keeping a close eye on our local California Pipevine Swallowtails & Saturday was like hitting the biological jackpot. I found tiny, brand-new caterpillars, larger ones & several adults sipping nectar from milk thistles.

A closeup photo of a large manzanita trunk creates a wavy abstract design. Areas of dead gray wood contrast with the dark red-brown of its thin bark. The bark is peeling back in curls, revealing a beautiful smooth pale green wood that turns red-brown over time with sun exposure.

Take a break from the chaos. Come sit for a moment, take a deep breath or two, and watch the manzanita bark curl❤️ #ArtAdventCalendar #CaliforniaNative

Salvia clevelandii is the Jackson Pollock of CA natives. Chaotic, uncompromising, and absolutely gorgeous when it decides to bloom-the smell-provokes wild thoughts.

A young Coulter pine seedling about 10 inches tall, with long needles and a thin trunk, growing in dry soil. A hand is shown for scale. Background is a wooden fence and dry leaves.

🌲 Planted a couple of Coulter pines! They grow the largest pinecones in the world (up to 10 lbs each 😳). Fun fact: the northernmost natural populations are just a few miles from here in the East Bay foothills.

Stephanomeria. From the archives (2018). This is an example of an un-tended plant and how you would find it growing wild. #CaliforniaNative
