Gallery Four - Flora
Flora is defined as plant life occurring in an area, especially the naturally occurring or indigenous plant life. In this gallery you'll find photos of wildflowers that were growing in thier natural habitat.    I've tried to identify each one, but I'm not an expert in wild flowers.    If you know one that is unidentified or misidentified please let me know and I'll correct the information.

Except where noted, all photos on this page can be printed up to 20" X 30".
All photo prices are for personal use only. Prints will not contain any watermark or copyright notices on them.
