Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: greenish flowers

An old photo from my archives, taken at Edgemont Ravines in Calgary on 7th August 2006! I was using a Canon PowerShot S3 IS back then. Have to say that the Canon was my least favourite of any point-and-shoot that I have owned. Stiff Yellow Paintbrush is native to western Canada and USA. Uncommon, and semi-parasitic, probably on the roots of grasses. Yellow bracts surround each tiny, greenish flower. Thanks to Mark Egger for the ID!

Castilleja lutescens is native to western Canada and USA. Uncommon, and semi-parasitic, probably on the roots of grasses. Yellow bracts surround each tiny, greenish flower. These were seen on Rob Blades' grassland hilltop, west of Nanton, southern Alberta, on 27th August.
