Blue Creek and Lewellen area Wildflowers
I'm fascinated by the huge number of wild flowers that grow along Blue Creek and can be found from the canyon tops along 92 to Ash Hollow. This is my catalog of flowers seen and photographed. I'm working on my skills as a photographer - so be patient with quality!
Blue Creek Wildflowers
This Closed Gentian (Gentiana andrewsii) is a rare find along the creek bank, hiding in the grasses in the shade. This year we found about 100 growing in an old creek bed that washed through years ago. Grows a couple of feet tall.

I was not familiar with Self-heal (Prunella Vulgaris) until I found this little guy growing next to the Closed Gentian I was photographing. It mostly was creeping along the ground.
