The tiny, low growing Western phlox type of plants in the three photos above are among the first flowers to show in early spring. They are identified as probably Parry's Gilia, although they could also be Argus Gilia or Evening Snow. These were growing surrounded by bits of twigs, small pebbles and rocks along a dusty, dry rural roadway in the third week of March.
