| JasonH | Great Idea! | |
Voted 10/10 | I love your idea. I do have one question. I got a picture of a golden poppy that I would like to include but the poppy is found throughout California not just in the Sierra Nevada like you state. Can I go ahead and include it? | |

Hasn't voted | As long as it is the same variety of Poppy that is found in the Sierra, then definitely. If it is a different variety, then I would say no. Thanks! | |

| Scott M. | Link | |
Voted 9/10 | Great idea and I'll enjoy using and adding to this as a resource. Another handy link for flower ID is UC Berkeley's Digital photo library. | |

Hasn't voted | Thanks Scott. I look forward to your additions. I have used the CalPhotos website for reference and will add the link to this page. Too bad they don't have thumbnail images in their listings. It would make flower identification much easier for amateurs like me. | |

| Kerstin | A Wildflower book recommendation | |
Voted 10/10 | The book I'd most recommend for people interested in Sierra Wildflowers is "Wildflowers of the Eastern Sierra and Adjoining Mojave Desert and Great Basin" by Laird Blackwell. His guide has great photos and descriptions of flowers not only from the High Sierra, but from the lower elevations of the Eastern Sierra. I've enjoyed grabbing this guide and wandering through the sagebrush near whatever campground I'm at--Four Jeffrey, Tinemaha Creek, Upper Sage Flat...If you encounter a wildflower, you'll probably find it in this guide. There are a lot of other good wildflower guides, but I like how this one covers a wide variety of elevations. | |
