Lockhart Basin: Part 2

The stars were perfectly aligned for our trip to Lockhart Basin last weekend. If we had been one week earlier or one week later, we probably would have missed this stunning display of desert wildflowers. From miniature lupine to centuries-old cliff rose, pretty much everything was in bloom.

    Isn't it incredible such delicate flowers (the yellow one!) can bloom in such a harsh environment?!

    Did you see any snakes? I love snakes, I just or to hold a 60inc timber rattlesnake for work and it was awesome. How is Sadie with them? Does it frighten you that she may see one?! Great photos, PS!!

    would you look at those "just watch me bloom in the dry face of adversity" flowers. Gotta love 'em!

    Such pretty flowers, and a great variety! So glad that you got to see them while you were there...it would have been a shame to miss them!
