Elegant Clarkia
Greasy Creek
May 6, 2010
Genus named (Clarkia unguiculata) in honor of Captain William Clark, Lewis & Clark Expedition (1804-1806).

Bob and I ran across a hillside full (south-facing) on the way up Greasy Creek to fix fence and replace a gate the bulls demolished. Neither of us can remember seeing it before - wet spring.
