Blooming now: Southern Mountain Misery (Chamaebatia Australis, a member of the rose family)

This botanical garden specializes in the native plants of California, and I love visiting it because there are plants from all over the state as well as those that are native to this area. This rare plant specimen was collected in San Diego County, in Southern California.
