Wild Onions in the neighborhood, Shasta County

 
Allium triquetrum is the name of the flower or wild onion.


I am very fond of this wild flower which is actually more known as a weed.  It grows in most the valley areas of northern California, and the name is Allium triquetrum or as I like to say, wild onion.  A friend once told me this, and I always think of her when I see these pretty flowers, which I believe are edible onions too. But I would be careful where I get them from.  

My friend is traveling today and I hope the weather improves in the south east and she has a wonderful spring vacation.

Daffodil's from the last week in March.

There were lots of daffodils this spring, such a bright lovely flower.  They really are beautiful and an annual that comes back every year and we love those kinds of flowers.

Daphne is blooming in Shasta County

sOne of my favorite flowers, thanks to my Mother!  This is a wonderful fragrant flower, and blooms annually.  The Daphne in our yard, is quite large, a big bush.  There are many, many Daphne blooms all over it.  Currently I have several vases in the house.  It makes the house smell of flowers, and it is very nice.

The flower smells so beautiful!

A beautiful addition to any garden.

So many blooms, when you walk by you can smell them.

Bare Naked Ladies, Flowers, Northern California, Shasta County

One of my favorite flowers naked ladies.  Known as naked ladies because they do not have any leaves just one thick stem.
For the past couple years, there have been naked lady volunteers in the yard.  They have such beautiful pink flowers.  They seem to show up in new places every year.

Chinese Lilac on the Trinity River, Trinity County

Just received these beautiful photos from via email.  Chinese Lilac on the Trinity River.  The color of these lilacs is gorgeous.  I do not think these are quite as fragrant as the lilac bushes that I am familiar with.

California Poppies and Yellow Lupin in Chico, California

Recently I went to good ole Chico and of course it was just as wonderful as always.  The weather was gorgeous and I stopped by a little park to take photos of this field filled with yellow lupin, and also native California poppies.
