Sunday Morning Gallery - Wildflowers of the Rockies

It is not easy to define a wildflower; what one person considers a wildflower may be a weed to another. All we may safely say is that they are wild plants with flowers and that they may be found almost anywhere. Here are a few from my neck of the woods.


Stemless Daisy




Rocky Mountain Columbine




Scotch Thistle




Narrowleaf Penstemon




Datura




Western Wallflower

  5. I love columbine too! I have a lot of different colors in my garden but my favorite is still the wild variety you stumble upon on a hike.

  6. I've got columbine in my garden too! They are one of my favorites. I've always been amused by the arbitrary line between flower and weed.
