Colorado Rocky Mountain Wildflowers       

Currently our wildflower picture library consists of over 200 Wildflowers that can be  found from the Colorado plains to the alpine tundra of the Rocky Mountains.

Just because these wild plants are called "Wildflowers"... doesn't necessarily mean that they are native to Colorado. Many of our wildflowers were brought here by early settlers, on the legs of animals, or seeds dropped by birds or carried with the winds.

Every image inside the Colorado Rocky Mountain Wildflowers was taken within a short driving distance from Denver. The majority of the wildflower pictures were taken in Deer Creek Canyon, up 285 thru Conifer with our expeditions ending at the top of either Guanella Pass, or Boreas Pass near Como, and both sides of Rollins Pass. Several of the wildflower pictures were taken in Rocky Mountain National Park and a handful of the images were shot on Cottonwood Pass near Granby, Colorado on the western slope. 

Over the summer of 2007 my wife and I had the opportunity to photograph dozens of wildflowers that we found on our frequent wildflower hunting trips. During  the winter of 2008 these beautiful new wild flowers will be added to the site.

The wildflower section of Denver Plants is dedicated to my wife Janet... who is an avid horticulturist. Without her help and knowledge of wildflowers this section of the site would not have been possible.

Janet and I both spent many a late night identifying and naming all the pictures we have taken on our frequent wildflower hunting trips. In all it took just over 6 months to bring you the wild flower section of Denver Plants. We hope you enjoy it.
