Rain and sunshine trigger growth, African daisies are hardy and resilient
Lupines are blooming in East County grasses
A little rain doesn't stop the Osprey from taking their daily trip along the coast headed to North Island.
The Mix Of Rain And Sunshine characteristic of the last few weeks has triggered the emergence of bright green leaves on sycamore, liquidambar, and other decorative deciduous trees around San Diego. Cruise down 163 through Balboa Park to appreciate the vernal splendor of the sycamores growing in the landscaped center divider. Or walk across the El Prado bridge and look down upon the same.
Purple "freeway daisies," otherwise known as African Trailing Daisies or Osteospermum Fruticosum.
African Daisies Are Bursting Into Bloom around San Diego, especially along the freeway embankments. The name refers to a wide variety of species belonging to the genuses Arctotis, Dimorphotheca and Osteospermum, with flowers ranging in color from yellow, orange, and white to purple. These hardy ground covers require little water except when in active growth and help to hold soil in place during heavy rains.
Lupines, Whose Spiky, Purple (sometimes yellow) Flower Clusters adorn grassy areas and disturbed patches of soil, are beginning to pop up all over San Diego County. If desert rainfall cooperates, you’ll spot lupines along the sandy washes or in roadside gullies where water temporarily collects. Coastal lupines should be in full flower by late March. Higher-elevation lupines will be blooming in the mountain areas in May and early June. The generic name Lupinus, meaning “wolf,” was given these plants in the belief that they robbed the soil of nutrients. Actually the reverse is true: their ability to fix nitrogen through root nodules helps them survive on poor soils and may, in fact, enrich the soil around them.
