Trip Report-Gasquet, CA - Darlingtonia, Pinguicula

[maxposwillo]

About a week ago I headed to the Gasquet area of Northern California in search of Darlingtonia californica, Pinguicula macroceras, and Drosera rotundifolia.

Site 1

This site was a serpentine seep located alongside a highway in Southern Gasquet, Darlingtonia californica and Pinguicula macroceras were both present. There were very few Darlingtonia compared to Pinguicula however.















Site 2

This site was a serpentine seep along a popular hiking trail. Only Darlingtonia californica was present.

Thanks Jeff! Yes the Pinguicula macroceras in this area are of the sub-species nortensis.
