This was my first time to the Mojave desert in the fall and it was more beautiful than I even expected. There weren't many things blooming, but the mountains and the structure of the trees and shrubs and the silhouettes of the Joshua Trees were wonderful to behold.
We had a field trip out to Joshua Tree National Park and found this rare little beauty-
Coryphantha alversonii, Foxtail cactus.
Some things were blooming with a vengeance, see California fuschia,
Epilobium canum ssp. latifolium below.
He's another one of our finds. This is the desert after all.
