Admiral District, West Seattle, WA

52 degrees Farenheit, moderate to heavy rainfall, full cloud cover.

I observed a few species of plant that seemed to have fully bloomed in the area, and added them to my account. I am having trouble identifying a few of the species using the inaturalist species identification methods, and the fact that they are most likely not native species and were brought here by human intervention makes them hard to identify using online plant guides of the northwest, which focuses more on native species and not on common species.
