Twenty wildflowers you might see right here, right now. Some past their prime, some not yet there.

Captions show where and when these photos were taken. All from Portola Valley -- or Stanford's Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve, mostly on PV, some in Woodside.

The next gallery has the same flowers, but the brief captions are about the flowers themselves -- closer to those on the printable sheet. And the images might be zoomed in a bit, square.
