Oh my goodness!
The Siskiyou Woolly Sunflowers Eriophyllum lanatum are slowly but surely starting to bloom, and the color of these blossoms is such a bright yellow, they are almost look fluorescent.
The flower heads seem to hover above their gray green foliage.
This native California plant is a larval host plant for the painted lady butterfly.
