  • Triteleia grandiflora flowers bloom atop a leafless stem along the Wenaha River Trail, in the Blue Mountains, Umatilla National Forest, Oregon, USA. Triteleia grandiflora (Largeflower Tripletlily or Wild Hyacinth) is native to western North America from British Columbia to extreme northern California, eastward into Idaho, Montana and northern Utah, with patches in Wyoming and Colorado. This perennial herb grows from a corm. Each funnel-shaped flower bloom is on a pedicel 4 to 5 centimeters long. The flower may be up to 3.5 centimeters long including the tubular throat and six tepals each just over a centimeter long. The inner set of three tepals are ruffled and broader than the outer tepals. The flower corolla may be deep blue to almost white with a darker blue mid-vein. The six stamens have purple or yellow anthers.

  • Tragopogon dubius flower blooms on Wenaha River Trail, Blue Mountains, Umatilla National Forest, Oregon, USA. Tragopogon dubius (commonly known as Yellow Salsify, Western Salsify, Goatsbeard, or Wild Oysterplant) is native to southern and central Europe and western Asia. The seed head resembles that of a large dandelion. After introduction into North America, it spread widely (invasively) across the continental United States and most provinces of Canada. The flowers open early in the morning and often close up by late afternoon. Western Salsify (T. dubius) looks very similar to the commoner Meadow Salsify (T. pratensis) except the green bracts behind the yellow flower are longer and more noticeable. Although not closely related to Meadow Salsify or Common Salsify or Oyster Plant (T. porrifolius), the Western Salsify readily hybridizes with both, and in North America its hybrids have created the new alloploid hybrid species T. mirus and T. miscellus.
