The large pink monkey flower (Mimulus lewisii) is at its height and forms beautiful gardens beside the lake trail. The wheat species (Mimulus langsdorfii) is also found in patches amid the others.
The honeysuckle bears beautiful orange berries, and the anemone now bears it "wooly" clusters of seed pods, often mistaken for flowers. They are tall, permitting the wind to reach the seed pods; while in bloom they were short thus protecting the flowers.
The mountain forms of flowers are now in seed, and those at present blooming are those growing in moist, damp places.
The large fire-weed (Epilobium spicatum) is in bloom, while the smaller forms have their seed pods.
Great areas of Coville's "aster" (Eucephalus covelli) and fleabane (Erigeron sp.) are in bloom.
In the lower regions the lupines form a riot of color.
The flower exhibit in the Community House now numbers 81 identified species.
