Clokey Catchfly (Silene clokeyi)

[ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]

I spotted this Clokey Catchfly (Silene clokeyi) along Devil's Thumb route to Charleston Peak above 11,000 feet.
This plant is endemic to the Spring Mountains, Nevada. It is a relative of the carnation that you will see only on Charleston Peak ,Griffith Peak and Mummy Mountain.

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."" --Albert Einstein
