Here are some wildflowers you might see right here in Portola Valley, right now in July 2021. Some past their prime -- go early!

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

Flower #6, Indian Pink, is quite rare hereabouts. Please leave a comment on that photo, or email me, and tell me if you see it -- and where. (The one stand I follow each year is on Sweet Springs Trail in Portola Valley Ranch. Its flowers opened between June 11 & 14.)
