Plants

1. Regular flowers - death camas
2. Irregular flowers- irises
3. Monocot- Miners lettuce
4. Dicot- Bluewitch nightshade
5. Pea Family- fabaceae, probably scotch or french broom
6. Gymnosperm- Coast Redwood
7. Terrestrial non-seed plant- Ferns (looks like maybe bracken fern, but I am not sure)
8. Pinnate leaves- Hemlock
9. Opposite leaves- Probably red elderberry? I didn't see any flowers on it, and it was very cluttered with other vegetation, so it was hard to even get and idea of what was that plant vs. tangled in it.

10.Asteraceae- Coyote brush ( as a side note, cool fact: this plant provides overwintering habitat for a parasitic wasp that helps to control pest outbreaks in Vineyards- I worked on a project where we identified that.)
