The Sonoran Desert in Western Arizona Becomes More Colorful

While offroading a couple of weeks ago, Candice, Darrell, Eric and I found colorful flowers in the Sonoran Desert.  Spring continues to bloom in Western Arizona.

The desert erupts into shades of yellow.

Creosote Bushes are

blooming.

Their tiny yellow flowers

remind me of stars.

The taller, Palo Verde 

Trees are flowering...

Tiny yellow booms

This Palo Verde Tree is just

starting to flower.

The branches of this tree are

green with chlorophyll.

More small yellow
flowers....

This is Brittlebush.

This flowering plant grows

at the side of the road.

I think it's Coulter's Globe Mallow.

Its flowers look like
tiny Poppies.

I'm glad that Eric and I stayed in Quartzsite long enough to see the desert bloom.
