Fringed Linanthus (Linanthus dianthiflorus)Observer
marie_dDescription

What
Valley Bladderpod (Cleomella arborea var. globosa)Observer
marie_dDescription
I am sure this is a bladderpod but which one?
What
White-lined Sphinx (Hyles lineata)Observer
marie_dDescription
Is this the white-lined sphinx moth caterpillar? I think tour guide said white sphinx moth. Same caterpillars were on almost every evening primrose plant on Henderson Canyon Road in Anza Borrego State Park
What
Desert Bluebells (Phacelia campanularia)Observer
marie_dDescription
Identified by tour leader as Canterbury Bells but these look more blue than other photos.
I initially had these as Phycalia minor. I am now wondering if they are Phacelia campanularia.
