True, the wildflowers were not spectacular, but the desert never disappoints. It was truly beautiful! This picture was taken at Red Rock Canyon last weekend. From a distance the scalebud (Anisocoma acaulis) gave the hillside an almost chartreuse color – kind of neon yellow.

Phacelias, brittlebush, and desert sunflowers were blooming in isolated areas in Death Valley, especially at Jubilee Pass.
Not the riotous display of some years, but the desert’s majestic beauty was on display as always, and with a bit of close looking, delicate wildflowers could be found.
