A Variety of Blooms

 

Here are a few more blooms I photographed the last time I was at the Desert Botanical Garden.  This one is a squash blossom.  Have you ever tasted a stuffed squash blossom?  The one I had was delicious.

A patch of Yerba Mansa.  Such unusual looking blooms.  

This is an evening primrose.  There is a spot in the garden where lots of these are blooming right now.  Some of the stalks get quite tall.

One of the farmers at the local market sells squash blossoms for stuffing, you can try making them, kinda fun

I have heard of stuffed squash flowers but never tried one.

I have had stuffed squash blossoms -- always interesting, though I think more flavor comes from the stuffing than the blossom. We had evening primroses in our garden one year but they didn't re-seed and we haven't seen them since.

I just noticed today some squash vines beginning to bloom.
