No. 22: Wildflowers

No. 22: A Colorful Show

The hills are alive with wildflowers. Spring is generous with her show of colors, especially in wet years like this one.

Sweet peas grow on the hills surrounding San Juan Creek Road, and California poppies are sprinkled across the hillsides. Mariposa lilies sprout up in canyons, and dainty buds grow alongside the railroad tracks. You don’t have to hike the many trails of San Juan Capistrano to get your wildflower fix.

Just look around you, maybe even stop and smell those unruly but beautiful flowers.
