JOTT - Special Edition - American Flora

It's flower time. Since I don't know much about flowers, I'll just present these photos with their locations.

The first flowers I photographed were in Wind Cave National Park.

Then Theodore Roosevelt National Park.

But Glacier National Park was really the high point for wildflowers (and the occasional mushroom).











After Glacier, I next saw a number of flowers in Yellowstone National Park.




From Yellowstone, I went a few days without seeing many. Then I chanced upon the Steamboat Springs Botanical Garden.




Spending a morning walking around Breckenridge, CO revealed several gems.


And how can we forget the fake roses in the woods above Lake Dillon?

A couple of days later in Aspen...

This Dandelion was the size of my fist.

And the day after that in Ouray, CO.

And the final flowers I saw before heading out across the barren expanses of the Nevada desert were at the Santa Fe skiing area.


Stay tuned for more special editions!
