I snapped this photo years ago before I started blogging. I was back in Santa Cruz/Boulder Creek California for a visit and took a walk with my friend Linda Levy on the high cliffs above the ocean. Wildflowers were aplenty and I took a number of photos that I stumbled across yesterday. I have no idea what this flower is, but I can tell from a different photo where she had her hand near it that they are rather small. That was a lovely day. Glad I have these flowers to remember it by.
Janet of the Simret Blog recognized this flower as a wild radish and both Martha Kennedy and Cee agreed, as do I, so it is official. Thanks, Janet and all.
For Cee’s FOTD
This looks so wonderful

It looks like a kind of Mallow. https://calscape.org/loc-California/Bush%20Mallow%20(all)/vw-list?view_style=list

Cee agrees. Who knew that there are wild radishes?

I guess if we domesticate something, it had to be wild at some point. 🙂

Right you are! Thanks so much. It looks so different close up, doesn’t it? Wish there were a larger flower that looked like that.
