Wildflowers in Bloom

The hills are alive with…wildflowers! Spring is in bloom in the open space preserves. All around you you'll see Paintbrush, Sticky Monkey Flower, Lupine and of course, Poppies.  Sunny, grassy trail sections are typically best for spring wildflowers, and in early spring the chaparral shrubs have their own fragrant wildflower blooms.
