Trip Report-Gasquet, CA-Part 2-Darlingtonia, Pings

[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 3

This site is a very large serpentine seep alongside a highway south of Gasquet, CA. It is almost a wall of Darlingtonia californica and Pinguicula macroceras.

























Site 4

This site is known as the Darlingtonia Trail, the Darlingtonia Trail is a trail built by the goverment to raise awarenesses of Darlingtonia californica, there are several information boards as well as two viewing platforms.

Hi Max,

nicely coloured Darlingtonias! I have to admit that I really love the flower of Darlingtonia. My specimen is so kind to show me a flower this spring, too. After a partly very strong and damaging winter.

Thanks again for these beautiful pictures!

Regards,

Andreas

Hey Max,

Wonderful report and photos!
I could have have sat there and stared at those for hours 'in situ'

Thanks for sharing them,

Brian.
